Appears to be a Farmall M, actually looks like it is in restorable condition, still mostly there and the tires have air in them....

Thanks for the memory...I think :dunno:
Nice pic!

It is a Farmall, but I'm not sure of the Model.

Yeah, and someone had sense enough to put a can over the exhaust pipe so rain water doesn't go down into the cylinders....

Problem was, I was small compared to the huge metal starter wheel on the side. I could rarely start it due to my weight at the time.
It took a 200lb man to start it. I still don't weigh that much!
