1959 Ford 871 Select-O-speed

“My younger brother (Pat) purchased the tractor from an individual who had used it to grade and maintain baseball fields. Pat used it for a short time on his farm then started to travel due to an out of state job opportunity. The tractor sat for three years. I called him one day and asked “what are going to do with the tractor”. He said “it’s yours if you want it.” Never passing up a free offer, I went and got it. It sat for an additional three years is a warehouse until I dug it out and started the restoration. With the assistance and encouragement of a lot of friends and sixteen months of busted knuckles, we finally got the tractor completed. It is now a parade tractor that will finish out its golden years driving down Mainstreet USA every chance we get.”
