I have two of them that vintage, early 70s. That is the hydraulic pump over the bellhousing. There is no reservoir or valve or cylinder. The valve and tank are supposed to be under the seat. The cylinder on the right rear of the foot rest platform. Water could be a problem, You might want to pull the drain plug on the transmission and rear end and see if much water comes out. Could pull the cover off the rear of the rear ind. It is hard to get to the transmission cover easy as you have to take the sheetmetal cover off before you can access it. Not hard to do but more involved. Muffler and carb aren't too big of deal, if it runs the carb can brobably be cleaned or adjusted. The hood has a couple of holes for the gas tank hanging off the front, but no big deal, but what is wrong with the other tank? These are good little tractors. This one looks a little rough but if it runs and the gears work I would say it would be worth up to $500. I paid 1000 for a similiar one with hydraulics and two transmissions a few years ago and though I got a good deal. I have seen them for a lot more than that, but nice too. I know of a Jim Dandy, the same thing and parts but a smaller model that is for sale for $600 around here, with a deck and snowplow I think. I think I would try and get it for $300 or $400 if it seems ok as there is a few things not right that reduce the value.
