I go to Porland every year, nice tractor!
Thanks...Love the show..See you there next year!
I'm partial to Case but enjoy looking at any old tractor.
That is a very nice looking tractor. I have a 57 Ford 600 series that looks very much like yours. It is not restored,and is in need of it. I notice that yours is put back the way it should be, red,and grey. Mine has been painted blue,and grey like so many do,but will be changed to red,and grey. You must be somewhere in the Portland area. I live about twelve miles North of Eugene .
Thanks for the comment Wendling...Thats Portland Indiana..Quite a distance from you..They have a great show there 3 times a year..I live 30 miles away!...You will be proud after you get yours back original!...Good luck..Jim
Hey I spend my vacation in Portland!,2 swap meets and the show,Maybe I'll see this Sharp Ford sometime!What a small world ,I also live a bout 30 miles away.
That is quite a distance from here. I just arrived home fromEastern,Oregon with the series 600 Ford on a trailer as we have sold this second place,so now having the tractor here,I will work on attempting to bring it back to original like yours,but I have a ways to go.
