I've found myself an 88 row crop practically in my backyard for $1800. It looks to be complete with the side tin, belt pulley, original lights, drawbar, has char-lynn power steering (not hooked up), a pair of hydro-electric &quot;toggles&quot; mounted below the steering wheel, a fender bracket for one cyclinder, an extra set of cast wheels with rims, and an extra set of fenders in better condition than what is on the tractor. It is currently plumbed with two sets of remotes. I've not seen many with the twin stick hydraulic setup at shows but I'm guessing this is stock. 

This tractor has the usual oversized (and badly done) hole around the exhaust pipe that will require a patch to repair. It also has an additional hole cut for an air cleaner that has it's pipe sticking above hood level as well. I'm guessing the air cleaner is from a later model of tractor or some one has done a hood swap. All the rubber is poor but holding air and  one rear rim is split. Tractor &quot;runs&quot; but needs carb rebuilt and the clutch is said to be weak. I have yet to operate it or hear it run myself, but I'm confident that the tractor has been accurately described by the current owner and his dad. I've also been able to look at it in detail (I've bought better described  turned out worse off Ebay - for half the price, but it was red and they seem to be dime a dozen) so it doesn't scare me much. I already know I'll spend $800 - $1000 doing the basic mechanicals, clutch, new rubber, and paint. It has been converted to 12 volt but I'm not sure that it has been wired correctly. It'll need checked out.

The tractor is supposed to be a 1952 model, but I can't find the data tag. I'm not familiar with the two digit tractors like I am with the four digit ones (I own a 1800 and 1650). I'm guessing it should be on the panel just to the left of the gear shift, but it is not there, although I found 1 screw or rivet that could've been holding one on. Any place else to look? Any advice?
