I am about to make the leap from jap compacts to a red white and blue utility tractor, and leading the race is a 1700hr '65 Ford 3000. This is a basic model - no ps, no live pto, straight 4spd. Any thoughts? I am thinking I can get it for $4,000 - original good paint, but certainly not parade ready. All seals, hoses, electrical has been replaced. Radiator re-cored. New battery. Owner says it has a generator, not alternator - does this mean it is still 6volt?
Also, anyone know the lift capacity of the 3pt?
Lastly, the rears are probably 50% at best. What should I expect to pay someone to replace the tires (they are loaded /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif)
