I bought this 1030 last summer on cl. The story I got was he was plowing in the fall and shut it off and in the spring the engine was stuck. I bought it figuring for an engine overhaul, but what I actually found was way worse, and unusual. The first pic is as it arrived, the first thing I did was get rid of the junk on the front and the cab, then started the teardown. The first thing I saw was the air cleaner date. This is a 1968 model tractor and you can see the filter is dated 67, yes by the looks of it it's never been changed. Neither has the trany filter. As you can see it also did not seize from sitting, but when the valve dropped at full power. And by the rust, not ladt year, but about 10 or more years ago. You can see the water come out of the intake when I pull the intake pipe off. I've collected most of the parts I need and hope to get it running soon.
