I need to take a pic like that myself...  I really  appreaciate  someone 
taking time to take the pics.
 
on June 29 of 1980 my Dad and I went out west to Petersburg,IL to Stevens  
Equipment and purchased a 630 JD.   It was kinda my highschool  graduation 
present.   I cried as an 11yr old when Dad traded his 720D  for a new 1972 
gas 3020  ( one of 64 I am told... to bad we let that  get away too) .    
 
they Delivered the 630w/ 45w loader on July 7th .....  and I had a  blast.. 
  I still use that tractor--- I mow hay with it with a 6 disc  vicon disc 
mower..  ( Spencer has a pic of it in a recent  book)...  
 
We also have a cockshutt 50 running but not useable yet--we are getting old 
 here and stuff dont get worked on like it use to.
