I grew up on a farm in Van Wert County, Ohio.  We moved to the farm in 1945.  We started with an Oliver Hart-Parr RC 70.  Don&#039;t know any more about it.  In 1949 We traded it in on a new 77 and the Standard 70.  I was 12.  I learned to drive tractors on this tractor.  It was used on the farm until about 1970 and driven into the Grainery and shut off.

In 2001 I was living in Georgia and decided to restore this tractor.  I like a lot of farmboys had left the farm earned a degree in Electrical Engineering.  I hauled the tractor down here and started.

It is a 1936 Standard SN 300277 and as I understand is rare.  I have had everything apart except the transmission.  It is now running and all I have left to do is finish sheet metal and paint.  I still need to work on the brakes.
