I didn't read through all the posts. So, just what I'd do. I have an old Ford Jubilee, which is similarish to an 8nish type tractor. Although it's fine, I don't care for them that much for, well, doing much. But, it didn't have enough power for what I use, I preferred using 520/530/630 Deere to that when given the choice, better gearing etc. Even with a very small lot of ground like that, and if looking at only older tractors, and because I've used them extensively, I'd like something like a 2510/3020 Deere. More gears are handier. I'd also like Oliver options. Not really a fan of older IH options, just me, I know they are good, don't care for the driving and shifting compared to others of the age.

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
