Mecum Fall Tractor Auction 2019

[Urbish]

I was browsing the Mecum Fall Tractor Auction photos and came across this unusual customized Farmall M (looks like a diesel swap among other things). There are some other pretty cool and rare machines going up for bid. Click through the auction days over on the left side of the page and note that there are several pages per day.

I don't see much of an M left there.

I don't see much of an M left there.

Other than the fact there is an M on the hood and I don't think that is factory.

I think the gas tank and light bar may be from an M. Maybe I should have said fuel tank since it is now a diesel.

There aren't any photos from the rear. It looks like it is an M from the transmission rearward.

All I notice is the side ribbing and the cutout/flare on the top of the hood is from the FRONT of an M hood...........and it is all made into a 1 piece hood with virtually no seams!! That really baffles me why someone would go to so much trouble to cobble this together.
