I love it! First tractor I ever drove my my grandpas 560 Diesel. It will be mine some day, no matter the cost

560 diesel huh? What a black eye for IH that was. I'm sorry.
I absolutely love them. I’m fighting myself hard, there’s a wheatland 560 for sale in North Dakota that’s tempting me to try out the new 6.0

New 6.0? What does that mean?
560s are nice to look at but that's about it.

Oh, I thought it meant something to do with the 560.
Nope just what I’d use to haul it with. There is a guy around here with a 6.0 powered M, I’ll have to try and get a picture for this thread next time I see it
A friends "Mighty M". 4-53 Detroit (turbo feeding the blower) with an over/direct/under (Oliver sourced) feeding the M trans (re-geared). He has done highr 50's mph with it. The weights on the front are fake (wood) and is a tool box/ cooler. The exhaust has a cut out that he can control from the seat, either through the muffler or straight pipe.
It gets driven to every show (several hours away).

Made the trip with only one flat tire.
I pressure washed 50+years of grime as soon as I arrived home. I also found the source of the transmission leak...

Got rear fenders for it?
It does not have fenders. I also found the bottom of the transmission is welded poorly and leaking. There is a bit of work to do here.

Not super old but fairly rare in the us... pic from right after I bought it and then from when it was almost finished. I haven’t taken a pic since I finished the paint and put all back together.
Taishan ts 254. 2 cylinder 25hp. I wish I had another one just like it.. pretty strong for 25 hp

awesome shot @kennyw somehow I missed that one.
makes me wish I spent some time taking some more pics back when we were farming with the real iron.
all of the good stuff has made way to farming with plastic it seams.
all the old stuff just sits in the back of the shed, I guess that's the way it goes.

I realize money didn’t grow on trees for my family back in the day. Kinda shames me it took this long to retire this filter though

Care to elaborate? By my understanding, they tried to use the rear end from an M, and it would blow apart from looking at it wrong.
When that was sorted out, I thought they were great tractors though? I'm a JD guy mainly, so maybe I'm missing something.
