Buying Advice What model Ford is this?

Im going to check out this tractor here in a day or two. But the owner doesn't know what it is exactly... He was thinking a Jubilee, but I don't think so .. What do you think?

My late uncle had one very much like that one... back hoe and all. Miss the old guy, wish I could ask him the model for ya... but I would likely talk to him about a lot of other things too!

That looks like my ford backhoe and loader. The tractor itself is most likely either a 621 or an 821, which would be a 4 cylinder gas (or diesel) without 3 point hitch or a mid-mount hydraulic pump but with a front mounted hydraulic pump. The backhoe should be a Sherman and the loader looks like a ford loader. Well that is what it looks like the 21 series tractors were an industrial model, and if I am not mistaken (which I am quite often) the yellow color was used of road crews. Well now that I look a little better it seems like the tractor used to be red which witch could mean it's the 600 series work master.

Is there an emblem on the front of the hood?

Guesseral · Oct 15, 2013

Don't think it is a Jubilee it has power steering and if I am not mistaken I think I can see the place in the hood left of and below the steering wheel for the select speed knob, but I can't zoom in to see any other items. What are the numbers rear of the starter on top of the bell housing?
No I take that back the spot on the hood isn't for the select speed it's for a know but I can't remember what good grief memory is shot!

Here are some other photos of it. The tractor runs and operates well. What do you think this old gal is worth ... gonna make a offer. Its a diesel and does have power steering.

tractor id will be stamped on the bellhousing flat aft of the starter.

old tlbs like that go in the 1500-3500$ range depending on condition. A real minty one might go 4500$ if the lines and hyds all work good and pins aren't falling out... and it has working steering
