Here's some good information I found on the small tractor FAQ:
Interested in learning how to tell if a tractor you're thinking of buying has been stolen, had major repairs or had the hour meter rolled back illegally? Send for the brochure on machinery fraud, "Self-Propelled Farm and Construction Machinery," available from the Iowa Attorney General, Hoover Bldg., Des Moines, IA 50319, (515) 281-5164.
