Some more from the Heritage Tractor Display

Two tractors that probably came from the farthest away.
Cockshutt came from near Hartford CT. White 2-70 from Canandaigua, NY.

Can't say I've ever seen a narrow front White.

 

[J.Wondergem]

I like the looks of those narrow fronts.

Wasn’t factory made.

Wasn’t factory made.

Not saying that one is a factory unit but they could be custom ordered that way. Many many moons ago the Dekalb Asgrow seed plant in Constantine Michigan had a small fleet of 2-85’s and 2-105’s with narrow fronts and mounted sweet corn pickers (I think Byron’s or Pixalls) for harvesting seed corn. When I worked there the plant manager had been at that location pretty much since they were doing the site work to build the initial processing plant and he told me about them. He was going to dig out some pictures to but I left for a job closer to home before he got the chance.

Here are some of the 100+ tractors that were brought to this show.

Some of the implements.

And a few more plows.
The two bottom Plowmaster was part of the display honoring one of the past local dealers.

A few more photos from the show.
49 tractors out on the ball field spelling out “OLIVER”. Hope to post the aerial view sometime.

I’m told some of the last words of the owner of this Hart-Parr to his brother was to get the tractor to this show.

Id like to see that rollover plow behind Ross the Oliver man's 2255! That'd roll the coal!
That plow is awesome.

Appreciate it big time. GG Wes

We have a 5 bottom rollover plow and have used our 2255 on it. It covers a lot of ground, fast.

Thank you and You’re Welcome.
The rollover plow owner brought it in hooked up to his Cockshutt 1850 before dropping it off in the row of implements.

Here’s one I had a few years ago, needed lots of weights to hold the front of the 1855 down when out of the ground. I did plow with it on a mfwd Allis 8010 which worked quite well.

Awesome . Would love to hear that puppy talk pulling that! GG

There was a dynamometer on site at this show so I took my 77 over to see what I could find out. The operator of the dyno asked me if I wanted him to run the test until the tractor stalled. I didn’t think that was a good idea. So then he asked if I wanted to test it for peak horsepower. That sounded like a better idea. I took this photo from the tractor seat when he said it was there.


In retrospect maybe I should have asked to see what the horsepower was at 540 pto speed.
Maybe someone more knowledgeable about dynamometer use can comment.
