I agree with the other fellows that it may not be practical to pay someone else to restore a tractor. But keep in mind that some us do not have the talents and or abilities to perform these tasks, but still want it done. I just happen to be one of those guys that have some old tractors only because of the memories they hold for me, but cannot personally do the repairs! Yes I have a ’45 Farmall H that I have invested twice as much as it is worth! I sure didn’t plan it that way. Had I done some research before buying the H, I could have found one that would have met my needs without spending so much money on upgrades and repairs. But as I said I have only done it for the memories. If the fellow wants you to fix up his tractor he must think you have the talents to make it happen! Charge for your services so you make a profit.
