A couple of desirable parts left on that old Ford.

They had a 42" cast aluminum deck which was about as good as it can get. Never rusts out and grass doesn't stick like on a steel deck.
However, the leading edge on the discharge side is almost always cracked or broken with pieces missing.
Amazingly, that one made it all these years unscathed........somebody could sure use it for a restoration project.
Also, the grill shell is cast aluminum and is often broken as well.
I hope somebody grabs that tractor for parts or maybe even a total restoration.
Fairly collectible.

That is a Jacobsen built Ford, 1969 to 1971. I have several of those including the 1971 that I bought new. If you could post where you saw that I know someone on this sight who would be interested. Not me.

Its in nj,,too far for you guys Im sure

John in Mich · Feb 12, 2020

Yup, too far for me even if it was restored and only $100. My worst one looks better. I have had contact with others who are looking for parts.

Is that a " Hydro : lever on that Ford ? Looks like it mite be. If it is that would make it worth a few more $$.
I have three Jac built Hydro tractors, Really nice option. oleclint
