First thing to do is get a parts manual for the M, then make a list of major parts that you need and watch for them on eBay or in the classifieds on this web site. I recently restored an A. What I did was to clean and sandblast cast parts as I took them off the tractor. I used Picklex 20 to keep them from rusting while I had them stored. Auxiliary parts like starter and generator were restored as they came off the tractor then painted and put aside. I put the major part of the tractor back together then primed and painted. The sheet metal is still sitting there, waiting for cooler, drier weather before I sand and paint them.
