Hi John, I would keep it too. Like some of the posts that you've received you can take your time
and restore this tractor.

I restored an A that was in terrible
shape when I bought it with a 16-inch moldboard plow. The engine was seized and parts of it was a basket case. All the fenders, tires and rims were all rusted out. I used tranny juice in the cylinders and let it soak. Several pistons came out by driving on the rods and on the others the pistons and sleeves came out together. I used a torch to heat the sleeves and the pistons were easily removed. I used a puck to drive out the other sleeves. I worked full time at my job
and worked at night on the engine. On weekends I worked on the tractor. I have a picture if you ever want to see the finished tractor. Hal from Bel Air MD
