Found a Ford 871 for sale

[midwesternhayfarmer]

Saw an ad for a Ford 871 gas with select-o-speed with power steering, live hydraulic, live PTO. 58 or 59 for the year. Read some old threads to check the shifting both cold and hot. Is there any thing else to watch for. This also has a Stanhoist trip bucket loader.

Thanks for any information you can provide

make sure it runs in all 10 forward speeds and 2 reverse gears hot and cold, goes to park and that the independent pto works when pulled.. it will freewheel when not in use too.
