1940 John Deere – Model H

I got this John Deere H tractor in the late 70’s from the original owner. Along with the tractor I have the original matching, single bottom plow, tandem disk, belts and sickle grinder. I have hauled the tractor on numerous moves around Missouri. During the COVID time period I decided to finally restore the tractor to it’s original condition. Hundreds of hours were happily spent and now my grandson William can enjoy his granddads old tractor. Maybe someday he will hook up the plow and start a truck farm?
