New guy Ford owner

[Purger]

Proud owner of two old Ford tractors (68 UK made diesel Ford 5000 and Brazilian made diesel Ford 6600). Both of them have been working for a lifetime in my family farm in southern Chile, and still running strong!
Im actually restoring the 5000, engine runs strong but i have a lot of issues with fuel leaks, broken body parts and only electrical that works is the starter.
Once the 5000 is finished im going to restore the 6600 also.
This summer (South hemisphere) im going to replace all electrical parts (Alternator with tach, wiring harness, sensors and probes) and all fuel system (Fuel tank, fuel tap, replacing fuel lines tubing with hoses, and double filter head with single filter with glass bowl). So, a lot of work to do, and i will most likely need some help from this community, because every time I try to solve one issue, i find 5 more.

Welcome to TBN.

There are several dedicated Ford tractor owners here. Start a thread about your rebuild when you get started. We love pics as well. Use the tractor model # in the thread title so it can easily be spotted or found by owners of similar tractors. Looking forward to following your progress.

I'd also enjoy any pictures you want to share of your farming operation.
