Fantastic old oddball tractor!

Wendel has some very neat tractors in his collection & several of them can be seen on his YT channel, if anyone is curious.

Never heard of a Sheppard tractor before, neat little tractor. Thanks Mr. Kelch for sharing your rare tractor with us. I hope your Memorial Day was great. Thanks and have a good week.

I wish I could get RFDTV. I used to have it 20 years ago. I always watched Classic Tractor Fever on that network.

I worked for Shepard in the 80's

My Novo powered Atomic Babe is still cultivating my watermelons and sweet corn. Can't believe they were that expensive. Quick question, was orange also used on Atomic babe, mine is red, but my 3 bolt split cast iron front wheels were orange on the inside. Hard to find info. Thanks again 👍

Obviously way overpriced for what it was, I'm surprised it was in production for 6 years.

[@danjosephson6910]

He said Shepherd tractor production ran for 6 years. He didn't say how long this model was produced.

[@loganbeedy5950]

They made them for 1 year, 1949
