Thanks for the input everyone.

I actually dont need the receipts for the rebuild, because it was done by the farmer just across the way from where this tractor lives now. That guy has about 25 red ones out and about his place, all in various states or repair (or disrepair I suppose) but he certainly knows his way around the IH motors.

He actually came over to work on it when he heard it running rough in the dooryard... Theres country living for ya...

The electrical system is all good, all the lights work, its a 12v conversion, electronic ignition, new coil, wires, plugs, distributor cap, resistor. Transmission is good, except that going up a hill at the top when you unload it it has a tendency to pop out of 5th gear. Ill look into that as I go along.

The new tubes without new tires is because the current owner just uses it to haul a wagon of wood back to his place, and he has a pretty good set of chains on it instead. So, the chains are his tracton, and the tubes just help hold the tires hold the chains up :)

So I guess Ill see soon enough if I end up with it in my driveway instead of his.

Im sure you'll all hear lots more questions in the next few weeks if its in mine...
