ford 4500 ind industrial is it vintage ? If so I’m prehistoric! Just want to know which forum for discussion?
I would consider it vintage and yours looks like it's been restored or well cared for. Data on it here: TractorData.com Ford 4500 industrial tractor informationford 4500 ind industrial is it vintage ? If so I’m prehistoric! Just want to know which forum for discussion?View attachment 827275

Not restored I did 100 foot spray paint job the seats were shot. I replaced them with a Chevy Silverado 50 bucks and one of my boat seats will be upgraded to black tie, wraps, added muffler, the gauge Consol wiring harness new starter , owner installed new injector pump. I put a Thermostart in. Don’t think it’s working right. Dug up my first stump with backhoe. Everything works good. Three cylinder diesel 740 loader 755 backhoe. I have about 3000 into it including getting it towed to my house I’m very happy very excited.I would consider it vintage and yours looks like it's been restored or well cared for.

I’m new loving it so far it seems to be so much more than Kioti CK 25. I like that one too. I don’t know why I waited till I was 60 till I got a tractor.Still a good purchase. It may be old, but it beats a shovel or renting!

The backhoe is huge it’ll dig down 15 feet probably too big for the tractor lotta weldsIs it just the angle of your first pic or is the backhoe boom that gigantic! LOL
Can't go wrong for that price.
Thanks I will. I feel like a little kid.15' digging depth backhoe and 3700 lb lift loader. This is industrial. It will pay for itself quickly.
I don't know about Kioti, but i think it would be a farm class loader. The difference between a farm loader and industrial is if you ran into a tree with a farm loader, you'll hurt the loader. If you run into it with an industrial loader, you'll hurt the tree!
Have fun with your toy.
