Does it run? What repairs/maintenance do you need to do to it?

It runs fine trying to do maintenance on it it has been sitting for a while. Jurying to find reference material and could not find anything under S 2000 nor with the block numbers. Completely new to this realm so basically starting from scratch

Shibaura's have a reputation for being well made tractors. I have had 2 - a 15hp Shibaura and a 40hp New Holland (Made by Shibaura). Both bullet proof.

Welcome to the forum!

The label photo shows IHI-Shibaura. This combination shows to have began in the 1950’s. In a quick search I did not find when a name change happened again but did find reference to projects with Ford (later New Holland) and also with Yanmar for the AF series of tractors.
Can you get a number off of your oil filter and cross reference it.
Air filter can probably be matched either by cross reference or careful measurements to length and diameter.
In an external hydraulic filter-cross reference is probably best route. Not all models have an external hydraulic filter and even most imports have a cleanable suction screen that is removable and reusable. A huge caution these screens are located low in the hydraulic reservoir so expect a huge fluid dump if not drained first. Follow the suction hose(s) from the pump, the cover plate will be opposite the suction hose on the differential.
I am sure there is info out there, but if a limited gray brought to the US, it may be difficult to locate.

It is for sure a 4 cylinder - just a slightly smaller frame than I would have thought. You will have a nice tractor when it gets a little TLC.

How many speed transmission does it have?'
Does the 3 point hitch work?
Does the PTO work?
Does it have rear hydraulic connections?
