To restore an old tractor one must take a long hard look at it,
Meaning, number 1 the complete condition of the tractor.
2 Dose the motor need to be rebuilt, 3. gaskets replaced, 4. all fluids replaced, 5. axel bearings replaced, 6. wheel bearings replaced tires replaced.
6. replaced all lights or repair them, 7. replace the battery {if needed}. 8.Replaced the wiring harness {if needed} 9. Replace water pump {if needed} 10. Replace or fix radiator, 11. replace or rebuild hydraulic pump
{if needed}. 12. Replace fan belts if needed. 13. Replace steering gears if needed. 14. Replace seat if needed, 15. Replace steering wheel if needed.
16. replace seat spring and shock if needed. 17. replace muffler if needed.
18. rebuild crab if needed. 19. new points if needed, 20. new plug wires if needed.21. degrease, sand blast. 22. paint.
I call it the domino effect , you fix one thing and something eles needs fixed.
Having said this it could cost you as little as degrease and sand blast and primer and paint May be $1000.00 if you do it your self to may be $3 to $4000.00 and more: it just depends on how deep your pocket and how far you want to go.
I hope I did not scare you out but I have completed many and it will vary from tractor to tractor and owner to owner.
What ever the case may be, Take your time and be patient and it will turn out ok, and it will be something you will be proud of;
GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, AND BE CARFUL

He froze to death getting this tractor out of the barn to pull a truck out of the ditch before I was born. Anyway my dad and aunt had to sell it at the auction, ... [Read Article]
