Well congratulations! I was shocked at first, but then I realized that you are absolutely correct about how many original hours are on the 400. The tires on the tractor are Armstrong. They stopped making those tires in the early 80s. Check on the side of the tires, most of the time there is a casting date on the tires. Google how to find casting date on tires. Again congratulations on your purchase I believe that it's possibly the lowest hour tractor that you'll ever have. Like you said "it's a gem".👍
About 20 years ago, an elderly neighbor told me shortly he passed away to forget about putting your money in the bank. They will find a way to take it. Buy guns and old tractors. He was sure right. Congratulations on both purchases today.
You’re still at it LOL! When I fist started produce and feeder steers farming back in the 80’s I bought a Super M and a Super A off a lady who’s husband passed a week after they bought them! Took em home and gently started them up! Ran em for years
I'm trying to hoard some Farmalls myself but I'm sadly lacking your pace of acquirement, lol .. I figured you for the 450 but can't fault you at all on the 400. Both top notch looked like.
You got the western fast hitch with the front cylinder and bracket on that tractor! A lot of times that front cylinder bracket gets taken off and tossed or pitched in the scrap! I got a tractor that I need one for, 400 propane!
Congradulations on the 400 it was the best of the bunch, and that plow you stole it for that price. That looked like a fun auction with some great deals, those Fords and Olivers are really great tractors. It looks like that guy had alot of pride and really took care of his equipment.
That 400 was my favorite of the bunch. Something I might consider is to send that original tach someplace to be redone since it’s a little rough. But then it may not pass as original, tough call.
Congratulations Gino. Nice 400. I had a 400 wide front, traded it along with a '64 706 diesel for the local dealers 1st 1460 axial flow combine in 1978. I replaced the 706 with a 67 706 gas. I have like the 67 better than the 64. I do miss the 400. That 450 looked especially sweet, and as you know the fast hitch is bolt on, so it could be added, but you ran it up plenty. There will be more
Nice buys. We don’t see anything like that where I live. If we do they are much higher to buy or are total train wrecks. I had to buy a CaseIH needed to work now. I love it,it’s been a hard working machine for me. Still dream of owning an 706 or a 806. I do own a 1948 Cub and two A’s. Take care.
@@FarmallFanatic I am from north central texas. All the farms in this area are small family farms. Tractors are smaller. Most of the farmall we see are M’s and H’s. I started farming with a 504 farmall. Needed something bigger. You do what you have to, like I said CaseIH has been good for me.
You have 2 point fast hitch equipment already so buying a tractor made sense. 3 point hook up was pushed as easier to attach but when they were showing the old 8N putting on tools it was perfectly lined up and a small implement was easy to budge. A four bottom plow does not budge that easy.
Congratulations on a nice 400. I pulled a 3 bottom like those with mine and it handled them good at 8-10" deep. I'm in Virginia and I have a little bit tighter ground than you do in western PA. Can't wait to see your videos when you get it home.
Great minds think alike. My money would be on the 400 wide with all the bells and whistles with plow. I was correct. That’s exactly what I would’ve bought out of all of those. Nice buy.
In the guessing game, I was right when I said "the red one", not a red and white one :) all red! You might wanna round up a short steering kit, cause the factory wide front does take 2/3 of an acre to make a circle.
You done fine. the plow was a great deal for YOU! The 400 will pull it. I'd love to see what that MTA would bring over here. The two I seen sell over here went for $9k each. Both of them.
Good day FF Did u not see oil on ground from 450 being run Now JD 60 compare to 400 row crop no comparison , 400 far better for field work, actually the 960 Ford 3pt, lpto, was best deal, especially for blowing snow Thanks Good luck
Firestone shows 14.9x38 field and road as a current offering on their website. I got the first bead mounted on my 450 today, need different tubes to complete the job.
