Farmall Kid.....I have restored a few.....I use a lie electrolysis method of cleaning parts....there is a link below....it's a JD site, but the process doesn't care! As for the tractor, snadblasting is really not a good idea. Sand gets in places you can't imagine. I've found the lie gravy technique on this site to use works real good. Before that I used to use oven cleaner I bought at the dollar store. The final trick is to get an angle grinder (or a drill you don't care about burning up...lol) and mount a wire wheel and get to it after softening with the oven cliner or lie gravy. Once she's clean, I wash them with soap and water, and then air dry them with a comressor. I'm going out to the barn to finish the paint removal on a BN which will be painted soon. I always think when you get the paint off your more than half way home.

Good Luck
Steve
