I redone this tractor in my shop--- took it back to the owner this morning
 
Oh wow , you sure scored with that one . Did you install the PS yourself ? If you di , how about shooting me an email so I can get some info . I have PS unit from an 861 (I guesss) that goes onto my 640 someday sooon - I pray . I really love the color scheme & egg crate grill on those 800s . Several yrs back , I almost had a 1959 871 with the SOS , brand new engine rebuild by the guts son who's a registered Ford mechanic . The engine , all the tin & front axle reinstalled to make it complete . But I messed around too long before deciding to buy , & it sold about a week before for the huge price of $2,000.00 cash . As its said : Ya snooze ya loose or your loss was another guys treasure .I couldn't get my steel toed shoe into the proper position or I would've kicked my rump many times over .So every time I see a picture of an 800 series like yours ,I sit & drool .Congrats & God bless , Ken
 
My E-Mail should work --Yours don't show up--I bought a used PS set up off a 2000---- went through 3 pumps (They crack by the pressure valve)

Ahem! Don't think that's an 800 series! :roll:
 

Beautiful job! and thanks for painting the starter red. Larry, don't worry about Ken, Sean PA is on his way over to Ken's right now to chew him out and punch him in the nose.
 
Looks great!!! Its nice to see one that is done right. We just
finished up our 861 a few weeks ago. We are second owners
and it has 1300 hrs and is like brand new. Wish it had power
steering like this one.
 
I think there is a couple used PS set-up's down at the salvage yard where I got this one but the time to put it on would have been before you painted-- however all the bolts will come out easy now $1250
