I have a Farmall 340. If this gas, they have about 35 horsepower. They made a total of between 7,000 and 8,000 Farmall and International 340s together, so some parts hard to come by, but they can be gotten with patience. I think it is much more of a tractor than, for example, a Ford 8N, but not too much of a tractor for a small acreage. So much depends on condition. Check the power steering and hydraulics carefully. Also check oil pressure and make sure not smoking. Make sure the Torque Amplifier works in high and low. Kind of the usual things to check. It is a forty, plus year old tractor but will have decent hydraulics and live pto. Some possibility it may have been abused with loader on it, so look for cracks on the front end. Good luck and let me know how it goes.
