I purchased this tractor, and a Farmall H, from a nearby farmer. Because the tractor rear tires are so far apart, it would not fit on either of our trailers. So we decided to tow it home with one of my tractors. I drove the Super M over to his place, hooked up a chain between the two, and set off for the 4 mile trip over back roads. I drove the lead vehicle while he steered the F-30. It was a long ride for me, but an even longer ride for him - the seat on the F-30 was not designed for cruising down the road, and he said that he felt every single pebble along the route. Fortunately, the roads are good, and there wasn't any traffic to speak of.
While the tractor is in generally good shape, the intake manifold is cracked and patched, and the carburetor needs to be rebuilt. Even after it is running, I have no real use for the tractor, as there is no lift, and top speed is 3 3/4 mph.

After I wrote this, I was approached by a gentleman who wanted to restore an F-30 and use it for antique tractor pulling, so he came down one cold winter day, loaded it up on his trailer and took it away.
