[AT] Ford 7600 4WD

[Cecil Bearden]

It is a state Surplus tractor.  It has been worked in sand..  It shows 
500 hrs, but I do not remember if the hour meter works.  It appears to 
have been used rather hard, but It runs and drives so that says a lot. I 
am going to modify the loader brackets to put a front mounted hyd pump 
on it.  That will let the hydraulic outlets work on something at the 
back.  Perhaps a leveling cylinder and hyd top link.  It has a lot of 
potential if I don't hit one of those big expense items....
