Think you say notill and no fertilizer below.
In those conditions it should work, you might not set any speed records but that can be a good thing...... If you are pushing all spring to get planted you might want to move up on tractors; if this is a nice big planter and you don't have to work hard to get your acres planted it will work great.
I would check out the hydraulic needs carefully tho. Older tractors tend to have lower output hyd pumps. That is what 'gotcha' for me with a smaller planter and some well suited gas tractors - they were perfect for pulling it, but they couldn't lift it. None of the three 40-50 hp gas tractors would lift the planter, so I ended up choosing between a 27 and 80hp newer models that lifted it easy, one a tad small and one way too big for 4 row......

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.
