Money wise, I am looking in the 6k to 9k range. I was talking with my unlce who is an auctioneer earlier and he said he thought an international 806 or something about like it would be a good tractor for what I was thinking.

I was surprised at the variety of tractor books, and tractor restoration books they had at the upity coffee bar bookstore.. maybe that's why the prices seem to have gone up recently... everyone needs a tractor to put in the garage of the 1/2 acre suburban house.
