Very very nice! How long did a "typical" restoration take you?

Can a tractor really be considered transportation ?

I just dont know. I think a spaceship could be considered transportation though. We should have a spaceship thread. :-6

1200 man hours for the Super A.

1600 man hours for the Super H.

Total expended on new parts for all 3 tractors was a little over $25K.


SWEEEEET Clip, & worth every minute of it! Outstanding jobs! My favoriate is the Super H, it just looks like a tractor. The smaller ones must be for beginners. :)
