He bought it knowing it needed an engine job, and had checked for parts availability, the local Deere dealer said there was no problem. He drove it for awhile and loved how it worked, except that it smoked and the engine was weak. When he went to tear it down, he found out that the cylinder sleeve set was almost impossible to find and would cost more than what he paid for the tractor, also the mechanics there told him that the engine had about a 1200 hour life expectancy.
