Rookie,
One of ours is a 4600 diesel...'68 I think. Had it since new and is an excellent one...never done anything except rebuild the injector pump and tires,batterires,etc. It's about the same tractor except horsepower. The 5600 is when the cab became kinda popular. Will try...?
 
Bought it today, it started right away with a shot of ether with the temp at 12 degrees. Thought that be a good sign. Near new tires all around.No leaks of any kind.Gave $6900. Be that a decent price?

george,

Not familiar with prices in your neck of the woods but sounds very good to me.

Did it have a cab...how many hours?
