Safety always #1 concern with any flammable fuel. If it hasn't run in a long while or is running don't expect near 50 year old LP components to be safe and if in doubt replace them. If you don't understand LPG get educated on it so you can be safe. If you buy the tractor JD did make a separate LP Operators Manual for it and also a good LP service manual SM2015 LP Systems. For copies of those contact JD publications 800-522-7448 or Ed 812-537-4622. Both of those tell you how LP fuels work and how to stay safe with your LP tractor and how to refuel it. You'll need to contact local LP dealer on refueling or if you already have a tank if it has a wet line in it to allow that. If you want to still work it hard in a day expect to refuel 2-3 times just like with other tractors that size. Parts? The JD LP system is NOT Impco but Century and many Century LP parts are still available thru local LP dealer, JD, JD parts vendors and other LP dealers. Carburetor is Marvel Schebler and parts still available. JD LP parts Nick Barbieri 512-221-4116. Nothing rare about a 620 LP row crop but there were not many standard tread LP models made.
