Toto - that is not Queensland, Down under!
Those two buildings are the give away Deas.
I think there were some animals being directed to demonstrate an "OLD" Holt!

I've always wondered about the way those old Best tractors a painted. Were they actually painted with red tracks and yellow letters or are they just embellished a little bit..
Seems like all the restored one have the red tracks but I'm just not familiar with them. I do like the way they're painted, looks good.

Yes Black, red & gold lettering! Traces of red can be found while working on the undercarriage. I found red under old grease on the rails, And black on the engine of my best 30. Skinner.

So many awesome CATS BEST & HOLT’s . I definitely think BEST nailed it on colors back in the day for a show stopper at a trade show. I guess in the dark you would never find your crawler in a field tho…….. thanks again for everyone’s participation!

Standard Gauge Thirty
Always a working tractor - originally a cruiser deck, converted to Orchard (sidewinder) by second owner. I was third owner.
It is now back with the original buyers family.

Hi, Folks.
I think the two Best Sixtys in my first 'foter' are serial numbers A101 and A102. Does that mean anything to anybody?
Here's a 'Wottizzitt'?
Just my 0.02.
You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.
