I have an M and it cost $3,500 for the motor work at the machine shop, another $1,000 in water pump/flywheel/radiator/starter rebuild/wiring/battery etc..., $500 in seat, gas tank refurbish, electrical components, fluids etc...So I'm at $5,000 and still need to fix brakes, fix leaks, new tires/rims, steering wheel, shock/spring, lights, paint and god knows what else. I have to agree with Jim, do a working restoration to make it run and drive then spend your money on something rare or special to you, in my case this M and my wife's MTA are family owned tractors and have a great deal of sentimental value. So if your H has sentimental value you could be looking at anywhere from $1,000 if the tractor is already in great shape to $10,000 for a full trailer queen restoration if it needs a ton of work. Just understand that tractor will not bring what you have in it if you want to sell it later. ~Anthony
