Good afternoon to the Farmall community. I have a old farmer friend who has a 1952 Farmall MD. It has new paint (farm quality, not show quality), new 13.6-38 tires, a new Saginaw 2 cyl. 3-pt hitch with a new Griesen directional control valve, a WFE with good tires (off a IH 806, I believe), new battery and hydraulic hoses. He has asked me if I am interested in purchasing the tractor for $2850. I am not not as I have several Farmall M's and my working fleet of farm tractors.

In my experience on older diesel engines, the fuel pressure gauge is almost as important as oil pressure and water temperature. Thank you for your responses. Ray (Medfarm)
