I would love to have a 140 with cultivators and a planter .My grandpa left me a 404 and a Super W-6 I wish I still had . The 404 had cultivators and that was its only job . Thanks for sharing and have a blessed day !
Oh boy. Those 404 are a cool little tractor. I think they were the replacement for the 230? W6 are pretty rare around here, especially the Supers. We had at least 4 running (and several not running) 504 on our dairy farm. My sister had a lot of troubles with coons and deer in their 5-6 acre corn field. Even with an electric fence. There were several deer (and a lot of turkeys) harvested there this past Fall. Looking forward to seeing more of your M
My 140 was one of the late 1963 models. It has the new style grill and decals on the side rather than the plates the white face 140s had. It looks like the last one with the rear mounted cycle mower.
@@MarkWYoung-ky4uc his is 12v. The decals, rims and tires are all different than on my ‘73. Mine has a fast hitch, his doesn’t, but his has a right and left plow, front and mid sickle and a whole shed full of sickle mower parts. He mowed roadside with it for over 45 years. He rebuilt the motor and had it machined less than 5 years ago. It didn’t get a lot of use after that.
Thanks for sharing another great video. I did not realize the 140 was a Cultivation model for the most part and again thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Yes. It was Cultivision like the A, but to be honest, I can do a better job with my little Cub. I guess you’d get used to it, but I learned how to cultivate with a Cub and they feel more precise. The 140 does a better job with everything else though. Thank you for watching
I have a 68 140 that I have a woods L59 mower on. It's a great workhorse. We were an IH family so I've had a Cub, Super A, and now my 140. I also have an Allis B but I don't tell many people that. LOL
They were great for turning around at the row ends. Even up here in Maine, narrow fronts were dominant unless you bought a utility, which many folks did because the barns are old and utilities fit well underneath them. Dairies used old bank barns and out the milkers underneath and used utilities to clean them out.
The 140-660? No, we made it private to avoid all the spammers with the fake Simon Colwel news among others. You should still be able to access it but you have to join
Always enjoy your presentations and find the extra video adds to the interest.
Thank You
Very informative my FRIEND! I am still undecided on the tractor I will buy this spring.
Who are near you for equipment dealers?

I have 2 140s complete

That’s my brothers. I think his is a 64 or 65 I can’t remember. It’s just sitting up there in the shed since he passed away
@@LedgemereHeritageFarm In 64 is when they went with the 12 volt system, I think serial number 26801.

Very cool!
Tricycle front end tractors were mainly used in cotton fields of the south because the fields were nearly flat, Also in the south planes of Texas,
They were great for turning around at the row ends. Even up here in Maine, narrow fronts were dominant unless you bought a utility, which many folks did because the barns are old and utilities fit well underneath them.

I know we’re a 140 high crop is with the 2 point hitch
Interesting. I’d like to see that
