    Tom, Thank you for your service! !🇺🇸 I have a 140 I have had for years, would never sell it. I used to plow snow on the runway at Pease. I miss it. Also a veteran . Great job with the 140 info. I live in Stratham.

    I enjoy seeing your IH 140 and Cub. It is cool that you are keeping the history alive. I have a 1955 Farmall Cub and a Farmall 100 both with fast hitch. I am enjoying getting them running and collecting implements for them. Very relaxing and rewarding experience.

    There are probably more 140’s in NC than any other state, as the tobacco farmers used them prolifically. I think that the 140’s vast popularity in NC is what enabled such a long production run.

      Amen. Most of the tobacco farms in Stokes County here were relatively small and the 140 was tailor made for them. Daddy and I raised tobacco with mine for a number of years and I continue to raise a vegetable garden with it.

    You seem to know a lot about the 140, I have a 1974 model that was bought new when I was very young and I have inherited it : I have started to try and restore it as much as possible. Would love to pass some questions by you if would help to answer them.
    Thanks for your videos.

    Good info. My original gas cap 75 model year resembled your radiator cap. International sent me one like yours, about a 3x3” in early 80’s and said they were having trouble with that style not being vented I believe they said. Sent it in the mail

    Enjoyed the video. I am looking for a Super A or a 140 for a small garden. Would you prefer one over the other, or are there any major differences worth mentioning? Thanks for any input you can provide.

    • @LedgemereHeritageFarm
      @LedgemereHeritageFarm  Рік тому +2

      A 140 is the ultimate Super A. They’re usually a bit more money, but most 140s are 12 volt (after 1964), often have a much more comfortable seat & a Fast Hitch. Once you use Fast Hitch equipment, you’ll never want to go back to bolt-on. Super A tractors are still better than Cubs I think though for many reasons. Thank You for watching

    I think I would like to own a 140 with standard hitch. That's what I grew up with plus the one point looks a little chintzy.

      The first one is my brother’s. The second is mine. About that H, I have always been told by the old-timers that “if she turns over, she’ll run.”😃 my brother used to have a 1950 M with a homemade 3-point with a gacked up fast hitch mower that had been cut and welded for 3-point. It was ugly, but it worked. Thank You for watching 😊

    My 1963 140 looks like the old one you have. It has the MCCormick Farmall 140 decals and new style grill. Unlike your's, it has the fast hitch. I think that steering wheel is a replacement. I've seen a few others with replacement steering wheels like that. My part of North Carolina was well known for tobacco and just about every farm had at least one 140. It's just my opinion but I think phasing out the Farmall name was the down fall of International Harvester. Afterall, the Farmall was the tractor that put them on the map.
