THE ANTIQUE TRACTOR PULL GUIDE

I entered the world of Antique Tractors in 1992 with the purchase of a 1939 John Deere H.  The tractor was restored a year later and I attempted to use it for pulling, quite unsuccessfully.  I soon purchases a John Deere 60 and had more success on the track.  In 2000, I graduation from Oregon State University with a degree in Mechanical Engineering that helped enhance tractor pulling.  My father and I built a world class collection of Minneapolis Moline Tractors that we still have today, all while continuing to compete in tractor pulls.  Over the years I've been to tractor pulls and shows in several states and met the best people in the world.  The original Antique Tractor Pull Guide was written in 2009 with Ground Speeds published in 2010 and Gearing in 2012.  This series of books is dedicated to all those who love tractor pulling and want to learn more about history, tractors and what goes into a magical hook.
