I am looking at two tractors and only want to buy one. I will be using it with an auger, grain drill, sickle bar, rake, and small square baler.
The first one is a Farmall / IH 240. I would need to get the fast hitch to 3 pt conversion parts. The seller is asking $3700.
The second one is a John Deere 820. It has the sun visor (roof only, no windows or sides). It also has a tractor radio installed, external hydraulic hookups, and rear-exit exhaust. It appears to be in really good condition. The seller is willing to go down to $5100.
This will be the first tractor that I have bought personally even though I have used many in the past (mainly Oliver's). Both started righted up. The main difference being that the 240 is gas and the 820 is diesel.
I can also pickup an Oliver 550 for $2900, but I haven't looked at it yet, just saw it online, so I'm not sure if it runs.
Any advice or additional information would be great. From what I can tell both tractors are right around 30HP.

In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
