Thanks for the coment. Certainly wasn't going to go quite that far in re doing what was neglected.Just going to put on tires. an old cab.and a loader of somekind. The point of fact is. I just can't see something going to pot that would be servicable and nice looking at the same time. I can imagine what these magnificant tractors looked like off the assembly line. For a 1965 I.H. there was a great deal of engineering that went into the design for the time. My SOn did a beautifull job in bringing it back to like new. At my age,74 with diabetes it becomes nearly impossible to do much of anything any more. But as My daughter says LIFE GOES ON. She is bateling Cancer And She also helped in the project.Running tools etc. Even My wife who has several major operations, helped with cleaning parts, So it was a family project. Gotta say the Tractor didn't cost an arm and a leg. Most parts we made, Floor, Mounting plate for Valves. etc. Lots of engeneering in the colum instruments,ash tray & pop holder Fuse panel , and on and on . New tangs new Hyd cylinders new tire. Tran fluid, filter. Oh Boy I could write a book on what was done. I do believe this is close to my last vestage of such projects. The good lord will determine that any way. Thanks for such nice coments. from you and all who looked . LOU

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
