I spent a lot of summers mowing the fields with my father's Ford and rear mounted rotary mower. Manual transmission. No power steering.

Not sure about the 'live' PTO term. I know when you pushed the clutch in, the PTO stopped. Clutch out, in any gear or (N) and the PTO would run. It's the only tractor I have had any experience with.

Around here, I can buy the three tractors I mentioned for around $3000 to $3500 in VG to E condition. I'm not looking to install a loader. Just mow grass. And I thought it would be more 'fun' on an antique tractor.

Maybe I should just buy a zero turn mower.
