1940 McCormick Farmall "B" Tractor - a photo on Flickriver

1940 McCormick Farmall "B" Tractor

Traveling to Auburn, Indiana on August 29, 2014 my brother Doug and I passed through the Indiana Amish country centered on the town of Shipshewana. While in town, we made a quick stop at the Hostetler Hudson Museum to enquire about the owner Eldon Hostetler (who is recovering from a broken arm).

This 1940 Farmall tractor is on display in the lobby of the museum. The tractor was purchased in 1940 by a farmer in nearby LaGrange for $300 and a team of horses! (Nice trade-in, if you can pull it off). The restoration was started by one of the owner's sons and only completed in 2013 by another family member. After searching for a good home for the tractor, it was recently accepted by the Hostetler Hudson Museum.
