Cool, thanks for the info.
We talked a bit, and he is getting ready to go pick up another tractor in florida, and then leave again this weekend to take it to PA. I may just get him to deliver the 'B' to me when he comes thru this way on the weekend to pick up that other tractor. He's so close (tampa-summerfield) that his delivery fee was not much more than gas money by the time I got my trailer up there and back, etc.. so I might just let him bring it to me. Sounds like he's always on the road somewhere. Mentioned he just delivered one to california...( yikes.. what a drive.. )
He had a good selection, an 'a', 'b' 'g' '50' '60' '720' and farmall '300'. The 'B' was actually what I had my eye on. I know it is the smallest of the tractors listed... but after seeing some pics of a few at wengers... I became emotionally attatched.
Pictures, you bet. I did a complete pic set on my 8n and NAA when i refurbed them. They took quite a bit of work.. like 9 months, every weekend, and holiday, and days off.. some nights.. This 'B' looks to be in fairly good condition already, which is a plus. Guys says it starts and runs.. is a 1950 or 1951 model.. so it has electric start..another plus, and the magneto was just replaced last year he said... another plus.
Will let you know how it turns out. I should know something by tomorrow or thursday, and if all works out.. by sat afternoon, there should be a green machine setting in my yard, being given harsh stares by the 3 fords already there...

p.s.
Thanks for birddoggin' those pic's for me. It's great when the tractor community pulls together to help other members. Hope it wasn't an inconvienience for you to get over there.
