Looks like you've got a good complete tractor. What year is it?

I've got a mower that appears to be identical to the one you've got pictured. Mine's a 27V, I was able to get a manual for it from Binder Books. Looks like you need a belt for it. I got one from Purvis bearing supply, was about $25 bucks or so. There are two mounting plates that bolt the mower to the drawbar. If you didn't get those in the deal don't worry as they're not hard to make. I made some after looking at the pictures in the manual.
TSC (everyone's favorite "farm" store) has knives and rivets that will work. The pitman arm I got from them that was supposed to fit was too long and I had to cut it down and re-drill the holes. I didn't have one to start with for measuring purposes though. They have guards that will work if you need those. Technically they're not the correct ones (I think they were for a deere) but will bolt on and have new ledger plates. They weren't labeled, but may have come from China, not sure how you feel about that stuff. However, I bought one from IH and it came from Korea! (Also it cost twice as much). IH still sells the ledger plates for a reasonble price if the guard are otherwise good.

I think it's nice to have both Red and Green tractors. The deere sounds nice popping along, but I think you'll appreciate the Farmall once you put it too work. It's good, smooth power and it's nice to have the clutch under foot when you start adding hydraulic levers and trip ropes and things that keep you busy.

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract. ... [Read Article]
