I had a 1956 Massey Ferguson TEA20 it was great fun.

My uncle Paul Seaholm was behind the design of that tractor. He lived in Moline and his dad was a design engineer for Moline. C Barth

My uncle Paul Seaholm did testing befor production there in Moline, sure brings back memories going to Paul's farm in Erie, ILL.

Family memories

My Grandpa has a 1958 UTS Diesel Special

Our farmall M is basically a lankier, 16 year older tractor with the same horsepower. It could probably use a rebuild to bring some lost power back. It’s an 77 year old tractor with everything but the fuel tank, grill, hood and lights being original. It’s the only wide front, steel wheel (or it was) farmall M I know of. It has John Deere rims on the back and a farmall “after market” wide front end.

My uncle Paul and his dad had a farm in Erie, ILL. 400 acres.

So where's this uncle?

Someone should repower one with a diesel, like the one in the Oliver Super 99.

The John Deere 80 had way more power than that during the 50s
