Re: Farmall H
I believe that to be a late model 1942.

Re: Farmall H
Thanks for the replies and the websites, I was under the impression it was a 1941.
John, that was an amazing transformation! I remember reading the posts about the restoration, but I didn't know it looked like that beforehand!
My H is all original (as I was told) and has all steel wheels, no rubber. I plan to restore it like it is for show purposes, as of now. Going to need a lot of help because it came with a crate full of parts, including the engine! The serial number on the engine block matches the tractor's serial number plate. This won't be a quick project, may take 3-4 years because I also have a Super AV to redo.

Re: Farmall H
Here are the pictures as promised earlier of the 1942 Farmall H I was lucky to stumble onto. I plan to restore this tractor as it was originally and I hope you guys will be there to help guide me in the project. It is not planned in the immediate future, but sometime in the near future.

Re: Farmall H
Any of you guys have a steel wheel tractor you bring to shows? How hard is it to get around? I thought about getting an extra set of wheels on rubber to switch them around, but that seems like a lot of work.

Re: Farmall H
Joey - I picked up a set of real nice rear steel when I bought my H. A friend of mine found a very early 39 H slot-top tractor in a salvage yard and bought it to restore. I ended up selling him the wheels as he wanted to restore it with steel wheels. They look pretty good on it.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

Re: Farmall H
Joey,
Instead of switching out the entire wheels, just change the 'treads' so it will roll easier. You may have seen these before:
http://www.millertire.com/rubber_lugs.asp
I have also seen where people cut the tread portion off a regular farm tire and bolt it to the rear rims. With a little inginuity, one could make something that will work.
Hope this helps.

Re: Farmall H
The rubber lugs look like a good option, but sure seems pricey. Probably would be cheaper that way than buying a set of wheels with tires. Gives me two options, though, parading on the street or showing the tractor on the fairgrounds.
I saw one guy offloading a John Deere on steel rims with metal lugs and he was moving very, very slowly off the trailer. The whole operation didn't look too safe and looked very uncomfortable. That's a long way down the road, though. Need to see if I can get this tractor functional without breaking the budget.
Almost forgot - wanted to ask what is the lever sticking out through the grill? Is there another part of the grill that covers the hole the lever sticks through?

Re: Farmall H
Joey - the lever sticking through the grille is the steering arm for the cultivators. The IH engineers designed a system that compensated for steering around corners with front mounted cultivators. It helped keep the cultivators centered over the rows as you turned the corner. It saved plowing out a lot of corn when you had to plant rows with turns in them. There is an insert which covers that opening when the steering arm is removed.
