Medfarm, It appears that you may want make the decision as to fixing up the M or just getting a more modern tractor of the same era such as a 400 or a 450. I would stay away from the Super MTAs because they are overpriced due to collecter value. The gain for the additional money would be significant. By selling your M for $1500 and spending $1000 more you will gain increase horsepower, live 3 output hydraulics, live PTO, a torque amplifier and possibly power steering. Just think of all of the work you would save for possibly the same or less money in parts. I don't know how attached you are to your M but the 400s and 450s are a bargan because they are a modern tractor out of the same era. Remember in 1955-60 IHC was at its zeneth and the # 1 selling tractor until John Deere decided to do away with the put puts! John
