Thanks for all the comments. I haven't been around a lot of old iron for a few years, but your responses remind me of the good times I had then. You all have given me some good tips, and I am looking at slightly newer models; thanks burnetma/Rusty. Allan, I like your H w/loader. Can't see the bucket in your photo but it must reach to a 4th story at least (grin). Cowman's suggestion of a Fergy 35 isn't bad...but I wonder where the cut-off is for down-pressure on the bucket and full-time power steering. Sloroll's I504 looks like it might be ideal. Reminds me of my old 485. I think I would be way ahead to get something I can bring home and use right away. Paint and cosmetics can come later; mechanics first. I much prefer wide front ends. I think 30 to 45 hp is plenty. I'll need to move fine gravel and blade driveways right away early this coming summer. (outbuilding foundations need birming) I have a large windbreak to maintain as well as bare dirt areas around the house and buildings. Occasional snow removal, but hopefully not too often. My neighbor will keep at least 2 of my 4.65 acres in wheat as it adjoins a 535A chunk he farms. Any other comments you all might make are appreciated. Dennis
