My 147 has no hour meter, so I haven't a clue. As long as she keeps going, it can get as many hours on it as it wants! :beerchug:

The ol' 71 of my grandad's I'm getting ready to restore.... Like yours, has no hour meter. I'd love to know how many hours it has on it. We used it to mow, drag irrigation pipe, haul wood from the woods, spread hay seed, cultivate a garden, drag general equipment around the barn lot, and even mounted a singe row self-driven IH planter unit on it and used it to spot-plant drowned corn! The motor I'm putting together now, may be motor #4! No one can remember for sure. Obviously, came with a 7hp, blew it. Went to an 8hp, wore it out. Then (this is the part that is fuzzy for dad and g-dad) we either put another 8hp on it, and wore it out, or that may be when it got the 10hp I pulled out of it! We all know how many hours we get out of the "K" series engines. How many hours would it take to wear out 3 or 4 engines! :bigthink:

I think I have the lowest on an older machine!
 
My 1864 had 163 hours on it when I bought it in May. It now has 208. :biggrin2:

Papaws 1811 has about 1450 and is on it's second magnum.

My 2072 is not really known. It has a CAT hourmeter on it now with about 60 on it. I bought it from a heavy equipment mechanic that works next door to me. He said the original meter was broke when he got it and it had 6** on it. So I figure it has between 7-800 on it. It's all the hours sitting outside that have taken it's toll on that tractor!
