I am sure you are refuring to Lance Little's 830 prostocker.... It is legal because NTPA allows sheetmetal from 1960 to current and the 830's ended production in 1960. Also what is the differance I think it is COOL have a frein that has 450IH sheetmetal on his 466 profarm and is one of the best looking tractors due to not being an other 1066.

I look at it as a way to pay homage to the tractors of the past, and is great to see rather than just another 6030.
I'd love to see more 460's as well (if we're talking about reds), but we all know how popular the 1066 is... Never really understood why there is a "time limit" on the sheet metal rule. It's not like pullers are using the original guts of the tractors anyway... The issue is like when ATPA made the rule about trucks had to have a full body and couldn't be t-buckets because they "didn't look like trucks." Just silly. How many trucks do you see go down the road with a hemi sticking out of the hood?

Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service. The cost is covered out of my pocket. It takes a great deal of time and a fair amount of money to keep this website going. Donations for: photos, classified ads, forum discussion, etc... are appreciated. Side Note: We are no longer accepting PayPal donations. They have changed their terms of service and stated they would fine PayPal users for spreading "misinformation" and "hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory". PayPal did not provide definitions for some of these vague terms. Woke corporate policies regarding "misinformation" could result in an automatic fine of $2,500 which would have been removed directly from the customer’s PayPal account. PayPal did backdown from some of their policies but quietly implemented portions of them in later terms of service. A financial institute has no right to monitor social media accounts or speech. This is unacceptable and I'll no longer do business with PayPal. |

I saw it at Gordyville and thought it was the sharpest JD at the show.
Alot of people watching don't that some tractors they are watching might have a JD hood, IH motor, Profab trans., and a KW rear end. Not that I agree, but that is the way it is in todays world of tractor pulling. MACK |
