You should be able to easily locate them if you do it right. Metal Detectors have a discrimination or screening setting. Must be set to accept the keys you are looking for. Might try it on another set of keys to test it. How deep were they plowed under ? Conditions vary and affect depth of detection. It also depends how big that wad of keys is. My key ring could be a boat anchor. Is your FIL knowledgable in detecting ? If he can't find them you would be welll advised to contact a local enthusiast . Some will do it for the thrill of the hunt and a good deed done. Others charge a fee. Findmall.com is one detector website where you could inquire.You may have a club near you. Also Law Enforcement agencies often have a detectorist they call to search crime scenes for shell casings and such. You might ask them. You also could check out White's Website. Contact a dealer near you. They will know someone who could come out and search it for you. Where are you located? I have been a lifelong metal detectorist and have several machines now. One cost me about $1500. It is a very enjoyable hobby. There are not silver coins laying at every search sight though as some people think. Some machines are very advanced with computer technology , multiple modes , etc, Not something one will master in a couple hours . Others are very simple like the wands that they use to screen people at airports. Hope I was some help. Let us know if you find them. Good Luck.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
