This was his uncles tractor (only other owner) and he wouldn't budge much on price. All original paint but I do have a couple concerns. Rear wheel hubs are pushed in on both wheels and the front grill has a dent (but I know really good old timer body guy) , runs on full choke . I think she'll polish up real nice though...she deserves it after 50yrs of faithful service . You can definitely tell the previous owner took very good care of her . So what you guys think ?IMG_1797.thumb.JPG.2c0bc10be5d9db74b07e3aaad5885f6b.JPG

That looks great. No worries about the hubs. That happens. Just move them back out and snug them up. Maybe add a second set screw. It kinda looks to me like the rear seals are leaking and they kept the oil wiped off. The carb probably just needs a good going over and I think a good body man can straighten the grill out nicely. Definitely a very well cared for machine. :handgestures-thumbupright:

That is a nice looking tractor , like you said it could use a little TLC. I like the truck , looks like road salt is gave a great time eating the metal on the cab. You would think after eating all the bed off the truck it would leave the cab alone.  A stake body comes in hand, you can always haul more than a pickup. Thanks for the picture.

:text-coolphotos:            As Bob said, the carb. is due for a cleaning. I would replace the fuel line and filter while you are at it.

Very nice classic Horse, lucky you can now care for the old Stallion.

Doubt you'll have any problems whatsoever. :handgestures-thumbupright:

Might want to try either a quart of tung oil or some old fashioned Johnson wood wax if that bed is smooth enough for rubbing either one in , you can get some pretty good weather proofing that way with a little work . Pretty nice old Horse , btw - rarely see one that was actually cared for properly .

Nice Jeff!!   You don't see new mowers in the big box stores that look that nice!  I'm digging the stake beds too!
