[AT] What's the "rarest" tractor you own?

[Lew Best]

I have a 420 JD with what I was told was "factory equipped" with the Henry
forklift attachment.  Everything is reversed (the seat, steering, brakes)
but it looks pretty "Rube Goldberg" to me to be factory.  IOW when sitting
in the seat you're facing the rear instead of the front of it.  The tranny
is also still standard giving effectively 1 forward gear & the rest reverse.
Sure is a handy machine to have around though & unlike most big wheel
forklifts the mast is short enough to raise the forks a foot or 2 & drive it
thru my 10' high shop door.

I'm asking this question because I get so tried of all classified ads that
ask inflated sums of money for a "rare" tractor that they only made 15,000
of, or something like that.  I know it doesn't really matter, but I thought
it would be interesting to see whats actually out there.  In reality, aren't
all of our tractors "one of a kind" as no two have been modified by the
previous owner's exactly the same.

For me it's a UG Mineapolis Moline, one of only 100 built (mine's #79).  I
also have an old style Oliver 88, one of 1,200.  Everything else is
run-of-the-mill generic stuff.

Enjoy, Joe
