| Had a guy locally tell me about a "farmer fabbed" high crop G, very easy to do, guy locally had 2 or 3 of them like that modified for sweet corn. Sold the G's and the owner eventually removed the high crop parts to make it a normal G again. Sold one and kept the other. So yes its possible and they did exist, not from the factory though from all the information I've heard. |

Isn't there a guy on this forum who collects "high-crop" tractors?
Can't remember his name but this sure looks like a "gotta have" for
him.......that is.......if he ain't already got one! LOL

Maybe it's to keep you from falling off when you've had a few too many!

The fenders bolt to the gas tank frame, too.

There is a high crop G with a mounted sprayer rig in an auction next week Tuesday in Black River Falls, WI. It's the Wayne Jesse auction at Northerninvestments.com. Wayne is a freind on mine. He has lots of restored small collector tractors and a few G's being sold.

I just saw all the tractors lined up this morning. I think I counted three Gs, a D10 and one other one I'm not sure of the model. Anyway, quite a selection of classic tractors for sale. Maybe I can bring my camera to work tomorrow and snap a few pictures.
