I recently bought a b450 farmall row crop tractor. Is there anyone else on this board that is restoring one of these tractors? I want to restore the tractor, but when it comes to finding parts I see that it will be a tough job. Any help or information would be appreciated.
 
Well, "restoring" is not a word I would use for mine, but I guess you could say yes, I'm restoring a Farmall 450 row crop. Parts aren't that hard to find, first you need to know that it's rewarding just working on it, because it's yours, and not everybody is doing it. But there are plenty of people on this site that can provide most of what you'll need, and what they can't, you can learn. What condition is your b450 in? Does it run, do any of the tires hold air? You can email me if you want to, I can be of help. Good luck and have fun on your Farmall! Hugh
 
Sorry to put the damper on your project but here in the UK were your B450 was made we can only get engine parts. A lot of these tractors were exported to the British Commonwealth countries and a few were sent to you lads. MJ
 
I had a British 450 back in the 1970's and early 1980's and then parts were very hard to come by. very few of the internal parts will interchange with the American FARMALL 450. The engine is completely different. Some sheet metal from a super M will fit. Transmission similar to the FARMALL but none will fit. The B450 has a factory 3pt hitch and a differential lock with a glow plug direct start diesel engine. BD 264 if I remember correct. At the same time I owned a SUPER MD and there was no compairison between the two. The B450 would walk away from the SMD rated having the same hp. There was one parted out at a salvage yard not long ago in Mayfield KY. Still might have some parts??? Steve Smith's 270-247-2219. I still have the owners and parts manual for the one I owned.
