The following 6 pictures are of the Farmall in the garage as I begin to tear her down.

Ain't pretty. Note the oil leak coming from the #2 cylinder port behind the manifold. I suspect that I have some bad valve stem seals.

The wiring was a total disaster. I have since stripped out everything and temporarily rewired with 14 gauge house wiring. I do not know yet if the generator charges.

Here is another rear picture of the back. Note that the steering post, seat assemblies were not reworked in earlier paint restoration. I now have all the wiring replaced in the light switch box.

It took about 3 hours to remove necessary items to pull the head off. As I suspected, the rings on #2 and #3 cylinders are totally shot. You can wiggle those 2 pistons real easy.

The head is in good shape. I will remove the manifold then take the head out to NAPA for new valves, springs, retainers, seats ground, magnifluxed and dipped.

PAINTED DIRT? You betcha. I found out the previous owner had the tractor only 2 months and he started painting it up. Not a professional job to say the least.
