The
following two pictures are of a 20-35 owned by Clayton Badgley of Kinde,
Michigan. The pictures were sent to me by Clayton's grandson Charles
Stanton also of Kinde Michigan. Charles says that the tractor was bought
in the early 1940's by his grandfather for around $300. After purchasing
the tractor his grandfather drove it 30 miles home to his farm. It was
used on that farm for a few years and then restored to its present condition.
The only mechanical work they have done to it over the years was to replace the
piston rings and cam follower rollers.
It
is serial number 2097 and by their best guess and some information from Rick
Mannen it is a 1929 or 1930 tractor. The canopy is not original but
was a common modification. Notice the spinning flywheel; it looks like it
was running when the picture was taken. I would love to be able to hear
that! Thanks for the pictures Charles!
This
picture of a 6A rusting in peace somewhere in Ohio was sent to me a year or so
ago. I hear it is has been moved out of its location in the picture and is
actually in the process of restoration! I hear it has several freeze
cracks in the engine so if anybody has any help for the new owner in regards to
parts for the Hercules engine please feel free to let me know. Although it
is not exactly in showroom condition I have seen a picture of the 6A that
is shown on the first page before it was restored... it was in about the same
condition before an obviously complete restoration so there is hope for this 6A!
This
picture of a 20-40, serial number 1381, was sent to me by James Cobb of Vermont.
Rick Mannen said he owned this tractor for a while in the 80's. I believe
Rick said it was originally sold in Ontario in 1925. James Cobb owned the
tractor for a while but it is now owned by an [old tractor club] in Kent,
Conneticut.
