Thanks for the reply. I guess I should of put a little more info on my post. Yes I will be doing all work. Old tractors are like boats, they are both money pits ( have had both ). Hydraulics are not a big mystery and yes I have experience. OH, and also the tractor in question is gas. It also comes with complete books for the loader ( A MF 200 ), backhoe ( ARPS model 728 ), and the book for the tractor itself. All books are parts books, not just manuals. Apparently this tractor is a " utility and turf model MF 35 dated 1962 and it has decals on each side saying " special ".
What I really want to know is this type model worth the price and it is different than what I am use to seeing, size is a little bigger for a 35 and of course the yellow color which is original. This seems more like construction equipment than farm.
Anyone out there familiar with this type?
