Wow, thanks for all the quick replies guys..My Late Father had restored a cub, super A, W4, 400, and the original tractor to our century farm a nice ol Super H, that like a fool I sold all of them except the wore out old super C and a gorgeous Super M with a crop row front end, and thought maybe I could pull our neighbours borrowed planter with either of them until I hopefully got a few dollars ahead of the game..Being 52 yrs old and remembering my uncles new internationals back then, and always thought the stance on them looked so tough..I think there was an 866 and maybe a 806 and a 1066 in there too...I don't need FWA, but my neighbour keeps telling me how, which I beleive, i'd never go back to 2wd once I had one, but I'd be grateful to have a nice clean older diesel that I could always spruce up later once I had the time and money to make her shine again..How many furrow plow could I pull with these tractors guys?? thank you..

I ran into a fella today, that had an older massey 30hp that he pulled a 2 furrow plow and a 10' set of spring tooth cultivators and also an 8' set of discs to work his 12 acres but he said it took him quite awhile with that narrow plow...I'd prefer to be able to at least think i could work our property once over with the discs in a full day or maybe a day and a half...I'd thought of Max $20,000 for tractor only..I'd rather spend a few extra dollarsand get Hopefully something realiable but I'm seeing alot of IH from the 70's and 80's for sale with 6500-7500 hrs on thm, and that kinda tells me I'd have the extra cost of maybe redoing the engine....what's the average cost of a Complete overhaul $3000-$5000 on the engine, then I need to think maybe injection pump and heavens knows what else might need redoing

My Mistake, the Super M doesn't have a Row Crop front end..Dad Sold that wide front end as he always liked the narrow front end, which it sits in the driveshed with now..But it does have 2 capped 90* steel elbows on right side in front of brake pedals and then another capped fitting on the left side, which i assume is for the hydraulics, but I'm not sure if they will be live or not..I'm pretty green at all of this other than my enthusiasm

Our Soil is clay/loam
