Thank you for the nice words but it seems my camera phone isn't good with heat and forces that overcast green paal on some pictures. Could be light angle too. Heres a few more:)

Hello milling_drum,

What general area in MT. did you take your pictures? That is some old iron!

The fenders, on that old steel wheeled beast, look like they're made from cut down livestock water tanks... lol

I can't tell, but looking from the back it resembles a Case, although the hand clutch lever is on the right side... every thing I ever ran with a hand clutch, it was on the left.

Good pictures... :thumbsup

Thanks for the comments. These tractors are in a farm field no longer being used about 15 miles north of Bozeman, MT.
