1978 Ford 1600 Compact
Thanks for the welcome. I hope to get a lot of good hints on taking care of a tractor that has seen little TLC over the years since my dad bought it new in 1978. I have found it is VERY hard to find parts, so I have to use my imagination. I hope to be on often. --Barry

Welcome to TBN :)

I moved your thread to the Ford/New Holland Owning & Operating Forum.

I am surprised to hear that. I thought the 1x00, 1x10 and 1x20 series tractors shared many of the more substantial parts and that the dealers had good supply. I guess it will be another day of learning for me!
