Grandfather’s Case, back in the family

I have a 1954 Case 500 Diesel, which my Grandfather purchased brand new . I found it on marketplace in 2017, we checked the serial numbers and they matched, it was my Grandfathers tractor. I bought and painted it, and it runs just fine.

I took it to a Tractor Show in 2024 with 39 others and got to lead the tractor drive we held for between 11 – 15 miles.
