1955 Massey Harris 44-6
1955 Massey Harris 44-6 driven by James Kitson pulling the sled, monitored by Eugene Tucker at the Page, Arizona Annual Antique Tractor Pull and Machine Show the first weekend of October.
I was excited when I was able to capture this moment in time. It really seems to show the enthusiasm these two have for old equipment and tractor pulling. My husband Jim is driving the tractor and his friend Eugene Tucker, is on the sled that my husband designed and they built together. Our tractor show is the first weekend in October every year. Jim and Eugene started it 9 years ago on property owned by Big Lake Trading Post. They let us keep our tractors and other antique construction equipment there. They are located at one of the main intersections coming into town and it has become quite a common occurrence to see tourists from all over the world taking photos of our tractors. I’ve even made up a brochure about them for the tourists.

I STARTED SIX YEARS AGON RESTORING A TO30 THAT MY FATHER BOUGHT IN THE SPRING OF 1952, I THINK!
IT HAD SET IN A BARN FOR OVER TEN YEARS AND WAS IN BAD SHAPE, BUT I FOUND A PERSON THAT BUILDS FACING MOTORS FOR CARS AND TRACTORS AND OVER A TWO YEAR PERIOD IN HIS SLOW TIME HE BROUGHT IT BACK TO LIFE!
NOW I HAVE FOUND A PERSON THAT HAS REBUILT SEVERAL TRACTORS IN MY AREA AND HE WILL START SOMETIME THIS WINTER ON MY TO30.
WILL BE LOOKING FOR SEVERAL BODY PARTS PROBABLY WHEN I HE BEGINS REBUILDING IT. I AM HOPING THAT HE WILL LEAVE IT AS MUCH AS HE CAN WITH THE ORIGINAL PARTS!
THANKS

I have a ’53’ TO30. It is original except for converting it to 12 volt neg. grd.
with an alternator. It still runs good and I use it on my property to cut the perimeter with a Bush Hog. Everything still works.
