Looks like a great buy, John. I’m willing to pay the $650.00 you have in it, so long as you agree to split the cost of shipping it to me.

PS, GREAT LOOKING CASE, you should be VERY proud of it!

I managed to "restore" this tractor for less than $650--I bought it when I was 18 for the sum of $25. It spent close to 30 years under a tree, abandoned during the Korean war. We cut some corners by today's standards, but didn't do anything that can't be fixed/corrected. Somehow we did this in less than a year with no internet, phone calls you had to pay for, Gas Engine Magazine and Wendells Encylopedia of American Farm Tractors as our only resource and no other tractor to go look at. I wish it still looked this nice, but as I titled this thread, it was a "few"days ago. Somewhere dad has a journal he kept of us working on this one, I think the recorded hours were 475---lots of wire brushing, no sandblasting.
