Ford 641 Workmaster Questions and Advice

[Soundguy]

Interesting package if priced right. 4-5k too high.

 

[Soundguy]

Rototiller not real use full unless it has a Howard trans

 

[ultrarunner]

Is the Howard the 5 speed?

 

[Soundguy]

Nope.. A Howard is a post granny. Slows ground speed, but not pto.

An 851 and a small tiller might work due to the extra hp, but a 641 & a big tiller would only work in soft pre turned soil.

That is an awesome looking 55 year old tractor for factory paint. If it not having a live clutch is a non issue it will be next to impossible to find one that looks that nice. In another 55 years it will be worth more than the $5K mower below I expect.

I've been on the fence as it is more of a want then need...

Sure does sound good... $5250 delivered 40 miles.

I hear you on wants vs needs.

On the positive side if you have a barn for it its resale value should stay about as today down the road.

I'm still on the fence...

Know if I get into a conversation with the owner it will have a new home.

My Dad bought one new in 1959 I believe, was just a pup then so might miss a year or so. Here's me running it pulling a baler and wagon with my Dad stacking, circa 1960. Baled thousands of bales with that combination as a kid. I looked for one, like you, just for nostalgic reasons but haven't chased one down. I'm afraid I'd be disappointed as they are pretty crude.
