Don't even want to post down below where the knives and guns are flying around, but I have 100% positive feedback after having bought and sold over 30 tractors on ebay, none of which were seen before bidding, and only got took once, but having already gone through that book not going there again. Just got back today with two tractors I bought from David B's dad and grandad, after seeing a picture of the H, and part of the back tire of the M in the same picture, and both were better than stated. Both tractors started right up, ran out of the garage and onto my trailer, and I couldn't have been happier. Like some stated below, you have to get a feel for who you're dealing with. If I had to drive all over the country to look at a $1000.00 tractor before bidding on it, I just as well stay home and not even try. Now if I was spending 5,6,7, or 10,000 bucks on a tractor I was planning on taking out and busting a hump in the field with, I could see driving to check it out, but it has been so good the last couple of years getting to meet, know, and deal with honest people who just want to get along. It all goes back I think to treating people like we want to be treated. You be a jerk, and it will come back and bite you in the a$$. Just an observation, Later, Harley

12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. 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.
