As you can tell,I'm a little partial to JD "B",s. You can get a descent,late styled one ('47-'52)for $1500-$2000. They weigh approx. 4000#,are an excellent fit for the 4500# classes. Even without any added weights they are built with more %age of their weight on the rear than the others. They have an ultra low low gear (1.5mph),will lug down to 600-700 rpm and not stall. Another thing about a hand clutch tractor. You can have a foot on each brake right from the git-go so you don't get the ole "one tire spin out". With a foot clutch,sometimes by the time you let out the clutch and get that foot on the brake it's allready too late. These stock tractors don't have locked rear ends and I see so many pullers wait til it's too late to even get their feet near the brakes for equal tire spin. Anything you choose will be a lot of fun. I just am a little partial to the JD late "B". Happy Pullin'!
