The 2-135 is an under powered heavy tractor. The Hercules motor will cost two or three times just about any other to overhaul. The White 140 is about the same tractor with a Cummins motor in it. That would be a better long term choice.
The Ford 9700 around here do not sell well. The motor is not that great and it does not have sleeves. So to overhaul it you need to bore the block. In heavy tillage the rear ends did not work well if the tractor was heavily ballasted.
Both of these tractors sell cheaper because of issues.
If you are looking for one of this size then maybe a IH 1086 or JD 4430 would be a better choice for long term use.
