In my spare time, I'm often fixing tractors for local small farmers...mostly the older types. Farmall cub,A C,H, Massey 30, 8N.
If I was to try to acquire a few tractors for restoration and speculative resale, what advice would you give me? I'm thinking about availability of parts, ease of repair and utility.
I'm talking about working-type tractors, not those gussied-up museum pieces with shiny paint...or are those the most lucrative projects?..(somehow I think I'd lose my shirt on a full restoration.)
Any advice (except DON'T!!!!) appreciated.
