That's REALLY nice Randy! Why does it have a wide seat?

Jed,
Thanks for posting the pictures, great looking restoration.
The R-3 does look great, that's why I wanted to share the pictures. The owner, Randy, invited me over to his place to see it and I told him I'd share some pictures with the members of ACMOC. Randy doesn't do a whole lot with computers. He's had the R-3 in pieces for years and decided it was finally time to get it put together. I think a lot of credit needs to go to his sons for most of the restoration. They all did a fantastic job on it.
I don't know much about the seat. I asked him if he had gotten it from John Hahn, which he had, and that's when he said he had found a picture of another R-3 with the same wide seat.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
