A little background: this was my late father-in-laws tractor that he used in a cattle operation. He was paralyzed in the Korean war and this little tractor was low enough for him to get on from the wheelchair.

The tractor has been sitting in a corner of the dirt floor barn for the last 35 years or so, and is a little rough-lol. It has a front end loader in pieces and a tiller on the back. I'd like to get it going and use it to till the garden and move a little dirt when my Kubota tractor isn't available.

In all it's glory!
That is quite a find!! Always nice to have the story to go with the machine. That makes the process more enjoyable and fulfilling for me in the end! You have come to the right place for help! These little tractors all have a personality and are great fun to work on and use.. they tend to become members of the family around here!!

Please keep us posted! Your father in law would be proud you are saving his tractor!!
