Reminds me of a home made job that I saw and looked very similar to yours, years ago. A fella that I knew took me over to see an elderly fella in his eighties that wanted to sell at least his Case VAC, and possibly his AC D-15. He rolled out the D-15 to show me both his home made power steering, because he had a bad heart as well. But he also made a cab similar to yours in size, shape, and mount. He enclosed the steel frame with plexiglass everything. Front, back, roof, sides, and doors. Then he used tarp or canvass to enshroud from the hood...down, and front to cab. He said that the heat pushed back from the radiator cooling fan from the engine roasted him out and that he had to prop the doors or windows open to avoid being baked. His D-15 was gas, so it probably ran hotter. That old fella still tilled, but his wife passed and he lost his partner and will to go on. If memory serves me correctly, he was selling it all including a 7' pull along hog that he modified to be pull along. Old time farmer that fabricated what he needed, including power steering using a push pull valve/gate and cylinder. I hope it all worked out in his favor. Nice fella.
Anyway, it can be done. I saw one and it looked a whole lot like yours, and both tractors were...orange. Good luck.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
