Shot on my parents' farm in Minnesota, the controls from a 1958 John Deer 440 Industrial Crawler. Here we have the levers to run the loader's hydraulics, which are for actuating the bucket and arms. The console and steering controls are seen in the background.

I don't think this piece of equipment has moved since I left for college 12 years ago, which probably helps cinch it in the "ruin" category.
