The "M" is where I basically learned to drive, started in early June of '54 and was pretty good in late August. http://www.simpletractors.com/club2/attach/BLT/1954Baling.jpg

They just had a IH show about 20 minutes from my house, in Laporte IN. My brother in law still uses a SuperC to mow grass around their house.

Thanks for sharing! The 560 looks like a serious worker and the 300 is a really neat size and very versatile. My dad collected his "Red toys" plus a few others, and really enjoyed each and everyone of them. Here are a few pics of some of his collection. (His collection of the big ones got me started into collecting the smaller ones - Simps & A/C's)

His MTA was his pride and joy.

What is the gray one the far left? Don't see many farmalls of that age. My dad has my great-grandfather's F-12. We restored it a few years ago and I was driving it around the farm this spring. It is cool when I can drive the same tractor my great grandfather did in '36. I have already laid claim to it when dad wants to pass it down. When I bought my house and he saw the garage in the back yard the first thing he said was that now I had place for the 12. sm01

The gray one is an F-12 with single front wheel (tricycle model).
