Hello,
I bought an NAA about 5 years ago and have been using it for mowing and odd jobs ever since; I've really enjoyed working on it, but unfortunately it runs pretty good. So I think I need to get a tractor just to fix up...
There's an H for sale locally for $700. Running, but in rough shape and leaking a lot of oil. I've read what I can on the net, but that's no match for the expertise on these forums and I'd be grateful if you could answer a few questions for me...
I (hopefully) know enough to ask about and check the basics, but is there anything specific to Hs or Farmalls of that era I should ask about or avoid?
I already asked about hydraulics and there are none; I know you can make or buy 3pt hitches for them but can you add a pump?
I'm looking for a big project that will keep me entertained (or pulling my hair out...) for the next couple years. Would a $700 H that probably needs a rebuild fit the bill? Or are there likely much better options out there? I don't have a way to transport tractors, so local is important (I'm near Dallas).
