John Deere B
The 1949 John Deere B was purchased from a farmer north of
Abilene, Kansas. It was during a tractor show that we made the deal. I
don't know if his wife is still mad at him or not, but it sure worked out
for me. It did not take much to put the tractor in great shape because
it was a good working tractor that had the sheet metal still in excellent
condition. Two new front tires, along with a new paint job, including new
decals, made this tractor an outstanding beauty. It took about three months
to restore. At a later date a set of fenders was acquired which really
gave it the finishing touch. As with all my other tractors, it is also
used at tractor shows and/or parades.
