J D Seller is right in that you are hoping to get an old tractor to perform like a modern one and it just is not going to work. I own several antique tractors and I enjoy them but when it comes to using them for things like bush hogging I leave them in the shed and grab a more modern one with live pto and power steering Those Ferguson 20 and even the 30 models were much like the Ford N series tractors and a great tractor in their day but that was 75 years ago and they have outlasted their utility. You should have done more research before you bought it.
I buy and sell used farm tractors and equipment and I do run into some novice buyers from time to time. I am reminded of a man who came to look at a tractor that I had on my lot. He looked my tractor over and drove it around he was pleased with the power steering and the fact that it had a 3pt hitch and live pto. When he heard my price he thought it was reasonable. He then asked me if I would take a trade and I said sometimes and it depends on what it is and how much the owner thought it was worth. He than told me that he had a Farmall H and he had paid $3850 for it and he thought he should get that on trade. I told him I was not interested in it at any price and if it was so good why was he trading it. Well he said it did not have a 3 pt hitch , no live pto and no power steering. Why, I asked him would I or anyone else want it?
My point is that these novice hobby farmers often buy tractors without checking to see if they are going to be of any practical use to them. IT IS A FARM TRACTOR SO IT MUST BE WHAT I NEED!

Today's Featured Article - A Brief History of Tractors in Australia - by Bob Kavanagh. After Captain Cook's exploration of the east coast in 1770 the British Government decided to establish a penal colony in Australia. The first fleet arrived in 1788 and consisted mainly of convicts who were poorly equipped and new little of farming techniques. The colony remained far from self-supporting and it was not until the early 1800's that things started to improve.
