I have the opportunity to buy a Oliver 70 row crop to restore at a estate sale for $250-$300 it ran as of 2 years ago.

It is a 1948 serial number 266238
The side cover shrouds are missing and the tires are wethered bad but still hold air. It would not take much to get it running(I think) The metal is in good condition and the general shape of the tractor is good. It also has the cultivator bars on the tractor but no cultivators.

What more should I look for or should I walk away? I would like to restore an old tractor but I dont want to get in over my head!
