> Money to buy a tractor

If you look around there are some good deals out there.  I bought a 1965
Ford 3000 this summer for $2400.  It had a spritz can paint job but I think
it is low hours anyway.  It had a problem with the lift not being stable so
I took the lift cover off and rebuilt it with a $20 kit and replaced the top
link spring with the proper one for $30.  A $40 tune up and fixing one power
steering line and it brush hogged several acres.  I checked recently and low
book is $3200 and high is $4500.
