Harold, You are in luck. The Farmall A is one of the most restorable of the older Farmalls. Engine rebuilds are no problem as there are a multitude of places including your Case IH dealer that can paractically have you up and running in no time, as long as you are willing to do the work of course. There are also numerous aftermarket sources for many of the other things you need for a complete restoration, not to mention a lot of bone yaeards specializing in used parts. As mentioned, E-Bay is another source, but you have to be careful or you can pay far more than you would ordinarily. Its like restoring a 57 Chevy, If you have the skeleton, you can build the car, in your case the tractor. Good luck in your restoration, and dont become too anxious to bring it to completion, as the adventure of searching for the parts is much of the fun. Ask questions here on this forum, and you can learn a lot of exactly what is unique to your particular year of tractor. By the way, You'll have a fraction of the investment in restoring a Farmall A than you would a 57 Chevy.
