I picked up a 1958 case 420B industrial gas wheel tractor for free.the sheetmetal is good ,has large loader bucket ,eagle hitch,PTO,and all the hydraulic seals look OK but needed a rebuild on motor(G148 c.i.)serial #6120762.all the parts for motor to run are about 1,500 dollars.I need a tractor for mowing,post hole drilling and rototilling.will this fit the bill or am I better off spending my hard earned cash on a different used tractor.any help would be helpful.I havent seen any info on any forum about this model.

High low range makes it perfect for rototilling. It was already well suited for the other tasks.

You better believe it is worth it, and since you have so little invested to start with you will have a great tractor when finished. Go for it I sure would.

This will be a capable tractor for the work you want to do with it. As for the engine overhaul, it is not always necessary to replace the sleeves and pistons to make the engine servicable. The tractor will not likely be used a lot of hours and replacing the piston rings and bearings and reconditioning the head will make it usable for many years... Gene
