Hey Ultradog MN! I hear you might know a thing or two about Ford 3000s. I have a 73. I don't have much experience working on tractors, just to be transparent. Eager to learn though.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”.
