I have one and like Bill says it has the pto with more splines than standard. I have been running mine with a slip-on adapter for about 10 years. The pto is the correct rotation so don't worry about that. I had trouble getting air filter elements for mine so I bought a whole air cleaner canister and adapted it to my intake manifold. Bill has parts tractors and can probably sell you a bolt on set up if needed. I also have a S-470 Buck and it is very similar but has a few more CC's and maybe 3 more horsepower. The domestic version of the D1450FD is the S-373. I have had a few oil leaks on mine but have fixed them all thanks to Bill and Len and the local parts houses. You can cross some of the seals. Mine is a dedicated mowing tractor, sporting a Woods RM-48 on the back. If the one on ebay has rice tires like mine did you can buy used pickup tires (16") and be close enough. It is a good tractor and I don't regret my purchase. I think I paid $3,500 for mine about 10 years ago. It had a new paint job and showed 325 on the meter. I bought it at Corriher's in Newton, NC.
