Congratulations to your dad for getting one of the handiest smaller tractors ever produced by IHC. I use my narrow front 1953 Super C fast hitch tractor to rake all of my yearly hay crop (6000 small square bales last year) and have found it to be the best rake tractor I've ever used. Of course a wide front won't have the same turning radius of the narrow front. With that fast hitch find some compatible fast hitch implements and you will wonder why anyone wanted those 3 point tractors in it's day. A lot of folks on this forum use 15W-40 diesel oil like Shell Rotella or Mobil Delvac in these older Farmalls which works very well.

Also, the engine air cleaner has a cup on the bottom which uses about a pint of the same oil as used in the engine. An Operators Manual for the Super C will come in quite handy for the new tractor, Hal.
