Harry Lee's tri-motor F-30

[Gold-Leaf-Deere]

I bought the Triple F-30 from Mr Lee's Estate about 1 and 1/2 years ago. I had a Hip joint replaced recently and will probably have a knee joint done soon. The jest of this posting, the (F-90) is for for sale since I can't climb on it. I do not how to post are send photos on the Web. If U Google Harry Lee's Farmalls, there are several photos available. The tractor is not over width for truckin, it weighs 10,400 pounds. I know that this is not a For Sale site, I have posted here first and will now go the portion of this site to post a for sale add, it will not be posted under the Photo portion. My price is $5250, My Son can deliver it for a Fee. If interested please call me on my Cell 812-449-6108. Thanks for your time. Chares English Sr.

Thanks for posting the Tri-Motor, That is not my F-30, I think that is the F-20 Tri-Motor that Mr Lee built. My F-30 was built on the same general design, but My tractor is on Steel wheels, front and rear with wide front end and narror rear end. Both tractors had one electric starter and by manipulating the center foot clutch and the two outside foot clutches,which were converted too hand clutches all three engines started. The tractors will pull on any one engine or combination one, two ar three engines. It is now 2 AM CST, I could not sleep due to my knee pain, just popped three Tylonol and will hit the bed one more time, THANKS.

Hi Charles,

To expand your market, go up to the classified section on the top left and post an ad. There are plain classifieds and photo ads.

The photo ad section couldn't be easier. If the picture is on your computer all you have to do is place the ad, then it will ask you for your picture later. You just need to go to the directory and pick the picture out.

Here's the tri-motor underway at the 2003 RPRU (Bloomsburg PA) with Harry himself at the helm.

Never understood the draw to do that to three (or two...) good tractors.....

One year when Harry was healthier I helped him start that tri motor at Elnora, those were the fun good old days.

I usually run into you at Elnora but missed you last year?? Im usually runnin around the grounds..

I just finished my IHC Charging Seminar at the Florida Flywhelers, could have used Bob M or Jim at my side to keep me honest lol

I did not totaly read your post this am,sorry Charles . Had I known who I was talking to So many dumb question would have not been asked. You bought the case L with starter opening few years ago, Had my trailer of junk parked by you 2 years ago at Elnora. Could it be we are both getting old? Talk to you on monday on the tri F-30.

That one above on rubber is a triple F20, Charles, your tractor was the triple F30 on full steel correct ?

 

[Gold-Leaf-Deere]

You are right, the tri-motor on rubber with the tricycle front end is the "F60", the one that I have is the "F90" on steel with wide front end. Mr John T, sorry you missed me, I was in bad shape that week end and had rented a golf cart. I was in a hurry and was headed South on the East side of Your John Deere tent, I waved, but You had a audience and just were not paying any attention, maybe next year. See Ya Charles.

I have a 300 u with a loader..... the loader makes it a little difficult to check the oil etc.

.... how in the heck would you do anything to the inside sides of these tractors?

do they come apart easily? looks like theres one piece of tubing across the front
 

[Gold-Leaf-Deere]

The tubing across the front frames is a side frame rail. It is very hard to get between the motors, it can be done either from the bottom or the top.
