You've got a lot of prep work to do there. Grease, flaking rust, peeling paint, all have to come off.
Full strength Purple Power will strip paint and remove grease, aerosol oven cleaner works too. A good pressure washer connected to hot water will help.
A lot depends on your skill level with body work, and willingness to put the hours and hours of sanding, filling, whatever it takes to get it where you want it. Keep in mind, when it looks somewhat acceptable with primer, it will look like hammered crap with gloss paint! But also remember it's a tractor, not a sports car!
