When I was growing up we had a 1964 Ford 4000 Diesel with a 3-14 Ford plow using 16" points. It would pull it well in tight red clay with the tires loaded with CACL. That was when the tractor was new to 8 years old and everything was in excellent shape. We also had rocky hills, but our plow had shear pin trips and we would just backup and put in another shear bolt and keep on going. We used an eight pan Athens Bush and Bog disk for new ground with stumps. Given the age of your tractor and the possibility that the governor or draft control might be less than perfect I would suggest a 2-14 bottom plow with shear pin or spring trips. I heard two many stories of the old Dearborn or Massey plows with out trips hanging under rocks or roots and the hitch would be in too much of a bind to unhook so a second tractor or a team would have to drag them backward. I wish you well; pulling a mounted plow was what the old Fords did best.
