Finally took some pictures of the 961 hooked up to the 72" Woods rotary cutter. Here are a few of the tractor sitting still and the wife took a few while I was cutting.

- Getting old. Sold the ranch. Sold the tractors. Moved back to the city.
IHMO the 961 is the best looking Ford tractor ever. Yours is top notch.
Hope to find one myself for a restoration project.

Thanks for the kind words. I can't get over how well the tractor runs. So far its uses are limited to brush hogging but next year we might bale about 10 acres of hay, and there will be a lot of landscaping/dirt moving once the house is built. In some ways I hate to use it and be getting it dirty when it is in such good shape but I figure it's better to use it then just let it sit in the barn.

That's one "PURTY" 961. :thumbsup:
If it were mine, it would be my "parade" tractor or once every great moon I'd ride it to church.

Have never seen an lpg engine apart but you are right it runs very clean.
It will be a parade tractor eventually when I buy another tractor to do the dirty work, but in the mean time i'm having a lot of fun with the old ford.
