[QUOTE=nikster;307492]A museum piece, driving it was a thrill. Only thing left is a powder coat the exhaust header. My friend went OVERBOARD with this one. Every nut, bolt, whatever is BRAND NEW.
In showing me the birth certificate & history it was born in JUN/JUL- 1947 & the last of its kind., IH then went to LOW BOY.

Beautiful tractor

Yeah I'm thinking you may have got the last part, "the last of it's kind., IH then went to LOW BOY" mistaken.
Because my 1956 Cub is virtually the same tractor, ain't a low boy.
If I'm not mistaken the low boy wasn't introduced until 1955. Could be off a little, don't have the "IH bible" handy right now.

Mine will NEVER look that sharp
