Somebody got a pretty good deal on Ebay this morning (which is rare). Little International Harvester B-275 diesel. I almost bought it since it's parked 40 miles from me in Troy, New York. But, at the last minute - I said the heck with it, since I already have several of the same tractor and usually find them cheaper. I did not want to bid it up higher. Good deal if I wanted to resell it - but I don't usually sell things.
It sold for $1,125. For a good running diesel tractor with wide front end, almost new rear tires, front hydraulic loader, differential lock, three point hitch, live hydraulics, live PTO, high-low range transmission with 8 speeds forward and 2 in reverse, etc. and 32 horse - and great parts availability - is a good deal. Makes a great tractor for running a brush hog, five foot rototiller, rear five foot snowblower, etc. Sure beats a lot of $3000 - $4000 Fords I see for sale.
A few people have posted on these forums lately that you cannot get a tractor with all these features for less then $3000? Well, here's one example. Ebay # 260292505433
One slightly weird thing about the tractor is - somebody patched in a truck front axle. Also, it looks like the loader had a trip-bucket at one time, and somebody did a poor job of making it a hydraulic dump.
If I could of bought it for $1200 outright - I would of grabbed it. But, who knows how much buyer was willing to go with the price?

While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
