Purple Farmall A Big Hit In Parades

Purple Farmall A Big Hit In Parades TRACTORS Miscellaneous 28-6-19 Thom Hart and his son Mike of Waggoner, Ill., are vintage tractor collectors. Their most "famous" tractor is a Farmall M which they painted purple. They painted it that color strictly for Thom's seven grand daughters. When Mike was expecting a baby they already had three red Farmall M's. They also had a Farmall H, a Deere H, Deere A, Deere 730, and Deere 3010. They decided it was time to do something different. If it was a girl, the next tractor would be pink or purple. So, when she came along, they decided to paint a Farmall purple. Mike chose the best Du Pont paint he could find. The girls have great fun taking it to parades and shows. They're invited to go to more shows than they can handle because it gets a lot of attention.
