I have been looking to get a tractor for a number of years. An opportunity has presented itself and I have a couple of questions: I have been told the '48 M I am going to look at only has 1 speed forward and 1 in reverse. He says it has always been this way. I am guessing this means the tranny has been broken for a long time. Should have at least 4 forward correct? The M has a Stan*Hoist loader. My research tells me this will be power up only. Correct? The M does not have a three-point hitch. Can it be added? Is it horribly expensive? (+$500??) I hope to rebuild and eventually push snow and a rear deck mower. Is an M generally more expensive to rebuild than a JD of some type? I know there are many variables to the cost discussion, but are M parts fairly easy to come by? Sorry for what may be dumb questions. Any help appreciated. Brian
