49 or 51 H - Going to look at - what to look for?

Posted by Jim on December 19, 1999 at 08:40:10 from (205.188.193.53):

Going to look at a friends H this afternoon, he cant remember if it is a 49 or 51. He has had it for about 5 years, only started it once this year, had it tuned up about 5 years ago when he got it. Was supposed to be rebuilt before he got it. Only thing he is stating that needs to be done is correct color of paint needs to be applied, was repainted wrong color of red.

Wondering what I should be looking for in particular. First time buying a tractor, have the list of what to look for from the YT site.
Plan on using it mainly for mowing, (deal includes a 7ft McCormick/Deering mower).
Tires are supposed to be 60%, runs excellant, easy to drive, easy to shift. Only reason he is selling is it is too big for his 5 acres and he has a Ford 8N also. I will be using it on 40 acres in SW Wisconsin, gently rolling hills. Has narrow front.

Thanks, Jim
