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

[fayguyma at execpc.com]

For me, it's not a tractor but a piece of construction equipment, a Carr
Formagrader. Know of about three left, includnig mine. It was a machine
that would take the drorn out of a dirt road and move it to the side,
molding the dirt into a rail that the concrete machine would ride on.
Obviously, not something in real need anymore. Don't know how many were
built, but from looking at a parts book, I don't thing there were two
alike.

I have a "rare" Farmall C that fits into the
white demonstrator serial range, but doesn't have a scrap of white paint
on it. However, it was Grandpa's tractor, and that makes it truly
rare.
