>>Sounds like you're looking for affirmation of a decision you've already made<< I think you've got me figured out. I am concerned about the availability of parts & manuals, but it sounds like that's not too big of problem. New Holland told me that the service manual is back ordered now, but they do expect to get some more in...sometime.

But it is my observation so far that they are willing to tinker with anything that isn't green! :-( Wife is actually one generation removed from being a country girl. She grew up in suburbia but her parents on farms, and many of the in-laws still reside on small hobby-farms. So she has been exposed to it growing up. I suspect you will be seeing a lot more of me here (esp. in the Ford forum) if this project proceeds. Thanks to you & everyone for the support.
