Thank You all for your help. I have looked at a few machines and am having mixed feelings. The best looking ones here are the Ford 555. Clean & nice,for 9,500.....but has that TC transmission. An old 1960"s Case 530 with a cab and almost NO wear & tear ( still has ALL decals too ) , but is 7,500 and a little small I think, plus possibly start/ electrical/ charge problems. This week I hope to look at an older Ford 4500, and A 1980 Case 680. Tires, hoses, rams, pins, welding and most hyd valves wont be too much trouble for my brain to fix up....I think I worry about muscle & transmissions most. Are ALL newer tractors shuttle shift and torque converter transmissions??? If so I may bee doomed to and old machine. Thanks ...Ace
