Lets see here. Your dad bought a 1963 tractor in 1968. That is 5 years the previous owner had to abuse the crap out of it which would explain burning 4 to 5 quarts of oil per fuel tank fillup. The last guy no doubt seldom if ever changed the oil, abused the PTO, ran it over rocks explaining the loose tie rod sockets. When your dad bought it either the salesman had no clue on that tractor's history and was blind to obvious abuse such as the tie rods or the salesman misrepresented the tractor. If Deere tractors were as bad as the one you had on average then they should have gone out of business about 1975 as word would have spread through the coffee shops, churches, and auction sales not to buy any such tractor. I was not there in 1968 to see what 3600 dollars bought but some guys rush into deals because the price seems almost too good. I will not say that our tractor has never had work done to it but even my father who has no brand loyalty says that tractor owes us nothing.
