Mike, That's not a bad looking tractor for it's age and the price is right! You would need the gear drive for the belt pulley and the pulley itself. This tractor has the gear box delete plate bolted over the area where the gear box would be behind where the battery box should be. A good pressure washing will remove a lot of the dirt, grease, oil so you may be able to tell what all is leaking. Just from the pics it looks like both front and rear main seals are gone, the bull pinion seal and possibly the bearing is out on the right side behind the brake housing. In the Navy, I'd call a lot of the stuff it needs as "Gee dunk". Other items require more work and getting into it will be a great experience for you. If you plan on turning it into a show tractor, allow for new rear tires. The axles can be cut off but you may also be able to trade them to someone who needs the longer ones and get their shorter ones on an even trade. If you cut them do so at the normal length for the shorter axles which I think is 88" (Don't quote me on this). Good luck!
