Hi;
Nice tractor, you sit up high with flat floor cab giving good vision. Obviously check out steering and front axle wear if its done a lot of loader work.
Ford had Major problem at this time with porous engine blocks. Most will have been replaced with improved block which has X shaped raised castings on side of block.
If it has the "bubble cab" look Very carefull for rust, in England they are rusting out and a real problem. Even if not showing rusty patches on the flat panels and on the bottom of the doors, lift up rubber seals around windows and door glasses, thats where the rust starts from the inside eating out.
Apart from these faults, they are basically a good tractor, obviously check for previous owner abuse & neglect or care. Same as any tractor you look at buying.
Hope you have good luck, post a photo if you get it.
Cheers David
