The Farmall is in pretty good shape.  It does have some surface rust on some of the sheet metal and a lot of faded paint.  It had a hole in the manifold which made it pretty loud when running, but it starts right up.  I'll never forget the day that it rolled up on the trailer.  I saw it coming from way down the highway.  As soon as we unloaded it, I took it out back and began bushhogging some light grass.  However, I learned that one of the cylinders was not firing.  That was the first major project...get it running on all 6 cylinders and a new manifold.  I worked on that the fall of 2002.  I started taking digital pictures of the whole process step by step, but our camera decided it wouldn't work any more so I lost the first batch of pictures and never replaced the camera (wish I had now).  One thing I was really impressed with when I had the engine torn apart was how clean the inside of the engine was.  There was absolutely no sludge or grime anywhere.  The lights all work.  The gages all work now.  The fuel gage was sticking when I got it.  When I had the engine torn apart and the gas tank off, I took the sending unit out and cleaned up the internal resistor and contact that rides the resistor.  It works now.  It runs like a top now and the TA (torque amplifier) actually works.  On most of these older Farmalls, the TA has given out.
