2 things on the Ford and one may not be a problem and that is that it would have a fixed wheel tread that may not work with a plow and then there may not be a 3 point hitch also that would work with a plow. Those he can lok at and see if they would cause a problem. The other BIG thing is that pto not working and on mine, 2 tractors when it would not work was a major problem, the one with a cab had to even remove the cab enought to split the tractor to repair the pto and at that time was in the thousand dollar range to repair, nothing simple about those independent pto's. Now being an orchard model it may have only the 4 speed transmission and no independant or live pto instead of the normal 8 speed transmission and independant pto. Now what cost over a thousand on my tractors would be up to $2,500 or more to get that pto rebuilt. If it was a normal model with a good pto I would say go for it but bad pto will cost more to repair than an engine overhaul and he would have in $6,000 before getting in the field to use. Could buy a good working and looking tractor for that money.
