Tractor Stories – 1942 Farmall H
My name is Alex Fevig age 15. I recently bought a 1942 Farmall H from a friend of mine that has a lot of tractors. It was in pretty rough shape. It ran and drove fine but it couldn’t pull a hen off her nest! I ended up painting the whole tractor with aerosol cans after a ton of wire-wheeling and sanding. I decided to show off my project so I took her down to Rollag, MN Steam Thrashers Reunion. I ended up getting talked into putting it on the dyno and found out that it put out a whole 12hp! So we hauled it home and the minute I ran it off the trailer I pulled the head off and gave it to a buddy of mine that worked a IH dealership he shaved and put all new valves in the head and while he was doing that I Had the Mag rebuilt and carb gone through (all myself) now she ticks like a Swiss watch, but unfortunately I haven’t had it dynoed yet but I’m sure it’s a heck of a lot better!

Tractor Stories – 1949 Farmall H
My Grandfather ( My Dads Dad) bought the tractor new in downtown Edmore, Michigan, at Verplank’s they sold Pontiac cars and international trucks and tractors. We have the original bill of sale, the tractor and cultivator was $1,883.81. This was the first and only tractor he ever bought before this they farmed with horses. My Dad drove it to the farm 1 ½ miles south of town where it has been ever sense. My Grandfather died two years later so I never knew him, that is why this project was so special to my Dad and I. This is the first tractor I ever drove as a very young child, in fact when I was around 5-6 yrs old my Dad and uncle were taking off the home made front loader bucket when I got my finger between the drawbar and the bracket they bolted to it and lost the end of my finger….
