At a price point of 500 delivered, you need to own this tractor. Many farm fresh tractors are much worse, and you will never find a better deal. (my opinion after operating 6 different Hs and SHs from the time I was 0 yrs old. There is nothing more you need. Time and intention to create a memory will drive this beauty into blossom. You should not care if it runs. If the engine spins now, you have the ability to get it apart, and that is your intent. You have negotiated a better than fair deal. Walking away leaves disappointment in both directions. There are no gift "H" orses. but this one is close. I am more interested in talking you through tire choice than searching for another unit. My dad asked a bunch of city folk to start at one end of a sweetcorn field and walk to the other (with two rows apiece) they were to pickout the the best ear for their evening meal that they could find. They could not pick more than one, though they could feel. They could not go back to retrieve former "best" ears, it was a one way trip. They were told (not shown) how to choose. Every one came out of the field with a cob picked in the last 50 feet of row. Every one had a nubbin of an ear because they could not decide to decide till the available ears all got worse toward the end. I (and others) are following you through this process from the day you arived on the forum. You are in the middle of the patch and (my opinion) you have seen some good material, and owned usable iron but not had it home. This is good material. Twist it from the stalk and lets start roasting. Jim

With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
