I have seen quite a few F-12s at shows in our area (Michigan).  In fact, it 
was the first tractor my grandfather bought.  It was bought, not to plow 
with, but to use as a tractor for cultivating.  My dad said that they 
actually used horses to plow with for a few more years, at which time I 
think they bought an F-20.  My dad said he used to spend weeks cultivating 
with that tractor, not only on their own farm, but doing a lot of custom 
work for people. It was also used to harvest all of the grain with the 
grain binder and the corn with the corn binder.  I used to spend many hours 
at my grandmother's as a kid (while the adults were visiting) looking at 
pictures of the tractors pulling various equipment.  After my grandmother's 
death my dad got the picture album.  Unfortunately, since his death a few 
years ago we have been unable to locate any of these pictures.
