On another subject, I've got an old belt with this Farmall 100 that my grandad used to use to run a hammermill and a saw to cut firewood (used to scare me as a child watching that belt flop around and grandaddy trying to position the tractor just right so it would stay on the PTO pulley).

Is this thing any good after being rolled up in the barn for the past 35 years? If it can be re-habbed, how is that accomplished? If I wanted another one, where and how much?

Unroll it and take a good look, if it is badly frayed, or is worn thin in spots, you may as well discard it, just isn't much you can do to rejuvenate it. On the other hand, if it looks good, use it. If the splice is not good, you can get a repair kit for that.

Delamination (layers comming apart) is deadly. the worst spot will likely be where the internal loop is tightest. when opened up look closely there. If you run it, check it for delam in 1 minute five min and 15 minute intervals for the first hour. Mark the loop ends with perm. marker to relocate them.
There are other posts here look in archives for flat belt.
Be safe they are not to hard to find new.
