One thing I have learned is that many of the mechanical parts are available at NAPA _ trust me buying parts at Case/IH/New Holland Dealers will empty your wallet in a big hurry. I too have found the www.ytmag.com a big help with general questions and on who supplies specific parts new & used. The "H" is a good little tractor - I have a good 350 that I went through a couple years ago. Its amazing how much neglect one of these things can take and still run. I've seen tractors that have sat for years with a froze engine and after being broke free run like its been overhauled - try that with an automotive engine and you'll end up looking foolish.
