I'm thinking about buying a IH 183 cultivator at a sale this weekend.
It looks like its been sitting outside a lot. I would like to ask what you think about: How hard will it be to fix it, make it work correctly? Theres not many moving parts, right? Just the main depth setting wheels and the rolling shields, I would have to make sure those move, and replace any parts, bearings, if needed. Probably replace the shovels, but I might have to do that with any used cultivator.
It looks somewhat rusty, with faded paint, but that doesn't matter, right?
I would buy it because I want to use it. I'm organic and doing old-fashioned cultivating, but only have 80 acres.
I'm guessing I could buy it for $400. The alternative is one in better condition for $1,000 to 1,500 https://www.tractorhouse.com/listings/farm-equipment/for-sale/207449887/international-183

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
