Well, I am currently trying to achieve my goal of owning one of each brand from the 40's ish range. I know what you guys mean when you can buy one all dressed up for $1500, but I don't have that kind of money! If I can get this tractor for $300 over all, rebuild the engine ( only pay for parts ) I have an inside source that gets me reproduction parts real cheap, one of my good friends owns a body shop and I do all of my own sheet metal work, I then paint everything in my front yard. Over all I can restore a tractor in that condition for around $1000 for everything including the purchase price. I know all the people in town that help me with stuff and give me a very good break, if it isn't free, plus I get that warm fuzzy little spot in my heart when it is all done because I can say to people, ya, I restored that tractor, not, ya I went and bought it. That's my thought, plus now that my dad found out they have flat heads, I think he would really like one! :) Thanks, Bryce
