Rare CASE 530 Propane Tractor. AKA "The Speed Demon"

[@TomSmith-me7ph]

We had a 530 gas triple range. It was fast on the road. I almost rolled it when I had the baler and empty hay wagon hooked on. The hitch on the tractor was not bolted down and was allowed to slide from one bolt to the other. I drove very slowly home then fixed that problem. When the drawbar on the tractor went from side to side, even those couple inches, it created a “whipping effect”. Please check your drawbar so it doesn’t move.

Wow that's crazy do you still have it?

[@TomSmith-me7ph]

No, my uncle is not farming anymore, passed away, and he had no one to take over the farm, so he sold everything.

[@wildcatwilly]

[@TomSmith-me7ph]

Wisconsin, near Lake Michigan.

We had a few triple range tractors around growing up. My uncles and cousins all drove one during a tractor drive one summer. My cousin, who only drove JD and IH tractors, says "I get the 430? How am I gonna keep up?" Little did he know he had the fastest tractor there that day. That 430 utility was nice and low to the ground and would HAUL.
