Hello
This year I have really gotten antique tractor fever. After I got done fixing my great grandpa's Super MTA and asked a few questions on this website (Thank you to everyone that helped me) I started looking for a new project. When I was doing research on the international MD and John Deere R I stumbled across a Tractor restoration competition though FFA. I talked to my FFA advisor and I am lined up to do it for 2021. I bought a 1938 international Farmall F20 to do this restoration. It is in running condition but leaks a lot of oil. I am going to do a Full restoration on it. No one in my family has done a tractor restoration so I have a couple of questions.
When you are doing a restoration what do you recommend for keeping the parts separate when I take it apart? would you recommend tubs or something else for a sorting system?
is there a couple of must does before I start taking it apart.
I talked to the previous owner today and he recommend starting with the engine and work my way back. Where do you recommend where to start?
Thank you for your help.
