Looks like I won’t need the Ford after next spring. When doing my research I checked multiple web sites that said my 20 hp Kubota was too small for a 5 foot bush hog, so I went looking for a bigger tractor. The plan was to buy a bigger old tractor and a used bush hog. Hence the Ford. But then I couldn’t find a used bush hog at a decent price so I stopped by the dealer where I bought my Kubota 12 years ago to see about a new one. The owner is a cool guy. He said, “Hell, I’ve sold a dozen combos with that tractor and a 5’ bush hog. They’re a great pair.” I tried it out and the little Kubota doesn’t work up a sweat. I do need to plow up about 3 acres for the wild flower patch next spring and I DO need the Ford for that. After that I can sell it. Fixing it up has been a fun challenge and it would have been even more fun if I had more time to spend on it. Anyway, I have amassed some knowledge of 3 cylinder Ford engines that Im sure will come in handy in my next life.
