drive it around, listen for bearing growl in the transmission. Good restoration: 5k, barn clothes, but running good, 3-4K. Should have a complete 3 pt.

<p class="x_MsoNormal">Howdy and Merry Christmas to all of you on this great list. I've recently changed my dog walking route and low and behold a mere 4 blocks from me is what appears to be a relatively pristine unrestored 40 wide. It's in someone's driveway
and doesn't appear to have moved in a good while. It does have an alternator and a distributor which I don't think is original, but the grille is mint, other than patina-ed, all is straight, tires not bad. Seat is trash as is the steering wheel. Is the data
tag on the axle? Google hasn't been helpful in location. It really has my interest... Photo next time. Approx. value?? </p>
