My 1961 MF35 (with a Perkins) has also been a pit (of sorts)... I paid $3500 for it (in running condition w/5' brush mower)... I thought I got a pretty good deal... Less than 10 hours later (after re-working the electrics and buying some 'stuff' for the 3-point and mower), I've got about $5000 in it and it is puking trans/hydro fluid out the front inspection plate (we're talking gallons/minute)...
