WWII Farmall H

[PACub100]

Fantastic job!!!
If I'd have done that, I don't care if it was 5 feet of snow, tornado or a freak storm raining pythons...everyone at Thanksgiving dinner (including 2 month olds) would be going outside to marvel over it and take selfies with it.

Brian, that turned out fantastic! You should be very proud of that. Please take plenty of photos at the family reveal.

The photo of it on the bridge is worthy of framing!

Kraig beat me to it.. that last picture with the trees in the background is suitable for framing!
You did a wonderful job on the ol' girl. Congrats after all the hard work.

WOW that's amazing! What a transformation! Awesome job. I previously had read through this whole thread and its amazing how far the machine has come.

Thank you Kraig! ( and otheres) I was so hoping to pop up at one of our get togethers and just never came together. So hope to bring it to one of the pd's soon. Been through hell and back to make this happen. Miss seeing you folks! It runs as good as it looks, wait I it painted it, it runs better than it looks. LOL!

 

[PACub100]

Ahhh...dude, you had to ruin it with a Mootang.

Need a '70 Cameron SS to make it frameworthy...



Again, fantastic job!!

Brian , I'm sure the family will be very pleased,especially your dad. I don't know where you are but that pic looks like the Rainey Rd bridge just down the road from me....awesome work !!!

 

[Joshthroop]

That's beautiful! Very well done sir!

Please be sure and keep this a secret. My folks have not seen it completed yet. Thank you! Or at least for the two people that know my family that are on here.

I'm cool with that !!!

Thanks Gary! I appreciate it.

Some detail shots that I didn't share earlier.

 

[JPrattico]

Very, very nice. Some really cool details there. I really like that manifold cover tin, that's a cool piece. I can also see there are quite a few differences between a WWII era H and a postwar H like my own. The most noticeable I can see is the manifold and magneto ignition.

You really make me want to tear mine apart and paint it up nice!!!

 

[kmcconaughey]

That sure is pretty!

 

[bbranstetter]

That sure is pretty!

Thanks Kraig! It looks as good as it runs now which has been a life long dream that I've had since I sat on it as a young feller. Can't wait for my family to see it now that my Cub and IH family have seen it.

Show quality! Followed your “adventure” for a long time, glad to see the finished product. Lots of blood, sweat and tears…congrats!

 

[bbranstetter]

Thank you Robert! I'm overall, very pleased the way it turned out and can't wait to get the plow in the ground with it.

I pity you. All the chicks around are going to be after you. Chick's dig Farmalls...especially shiny, purdy Farmalls like yours.
Be extra careful out there and keep your eyes peeled for sneak attacks...
