Plus, after having had a tractor with 3 point I doubt you'd ever want to go back to a tractor that didn't have it.
Do you use searchtempest? I searched within 500 miles of Jackson, MS and there are several Ford 3000s that appear to be worth a glimpse. I don't know if you have the means to haul one though. BTW, a 3000 is only rated at about 37 hp - less than your stated 45-50. But keep in mind that most modern tractors are going to be rated by flywheel hp and not pto hp like the old ones were.

Cheaper than here too. Whatever you do hold out for the 8 sp w/LPTO and power steering. Make those two items a deal breaker if they don't have it.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
