I am new here and to the world of tractors in general. I wouldn't consider myself to be the handiest, most mechanically inclined person in the world, but I do think that I can handle anything that might pop up with this TO35.
Long story short my soon-to-be-wife and I moved out to 15-acres in East Texas in October. I've since purchased a few cows and horses and needed something to primarily mow the pastures. On Craigslist (gotta love it!) I found a guy with this tractor for trade. I ended up trading him an old muscle car that I've owned for the past 7-8 years that I had no hope in restoring and really only cost me less than $500. So I figured trading a non-working car for a working tractor and four implements (mower/shredder, boom, HEAVY blade, and a 3-pt platform) was a heck of a deal!
At the moment I just want to confirm that it is indeed the correct year. The serial number on the tractor is 143401. At the moment I don't have any pictures to share to make sure that it is also a TO35, but I will get some tonight.
Any ideas/thoughts/concerns/advice/whatever would be greatly appreciated. Just pretend you're trying to explain things to a small child and everything should work out fine! :laughing:
P.S. Does anyone know the value of the tractor in "decent" condition?
