I finally bought my first tractor over the weekend - a 1941Farmall A. It's not currently running as it needs a carburetor, but I'm pretty excited about the potential. The previous owner was in the midst of a rebuild when he passed. He bequeathed it to his sister who sold it to me for $450, which I thought was a bargain. I intend to continue the rebuild - I say "rebuild" instead of "restore" because I don't plan to go back to original condition with it. (Don't be surprised if it ends up maroon...) I've got a small farm and intend to put it to good use.
Without further ado...

All four plugs looked just like this and the pistons were shiny upon inspection, which is promising:
And the valve train is pristine for being 73 years old:
