Ford Industrial Tractor

I have for sale 1972 Ford 4500 Industrial Tractor.  The hours say 1488, but i am certain it's not right.  It has a 3 cylinder Diesel engine with 65h.p. with a 4 speed power reversing transmission, that means no clutch with a forward and reverse lever on steering counsel for smooth maneuvering.  It is equipped with a heavy duty loader bucket( That grapple claw that is shown in pics. is not provided.)  It has 3 point in rear and 540 p.t.o.  Loader is equipped with a 3rd valve which we used for the grapple.  There are leaks in control valve, It' needs new o rings.  but every thing works good!!!  The engine runs good, just  little tired,  We did replace power steering pump a couple yrs ago.  We've used it for doing tree work, but decided to upgrade to cat payloaders.  We no longer have a use for this tractor and would like see it go to a good home.  The tractor and loader were completely sanded down and repainted 3 years ago.  We also added a few years back a 3 point landscape rake, works excellent for tree and brush clean up and excellent gravel grader.  I really didn't want to see it go but we'll throw it in!!!!!!!!! 

        This tractor is used for there is no warranty!  Everything works on it, but it isn't NEW!!!  It would make a excellent tractor for around the farm or scooping snow.  The loader on these industrials are indestructable.  They can lift as much as the back end of the tractor will allow you. (Not recommended for safety!)  These tractors are still around to this day for a reason.  This is not a typical farm tractor, they are designed to lift!!  

       If you have any questions Please don't hesitate to call 712-470-4313.  If you are close and would like to see it, your more then welcome to stop by, and if you would like more pictures I can get you more.  I have a owners manual on this unit with all your info.  and serial number and parts and specifications.  I only accept down payment of $500.00 on via paypal after auction ends. then you pay the rest when you come to pick it up.  We are not responsible for shipping.  Thanks and happy bidding!!!!!!!!!!!!

I apologize for the inconvenience,  but there is no pto equipped on the unit, we have a john deere similar to this which has one, and I was for some reason thinking about that one.  I will be selling the john deere a little later if any one would be interested.   It's a John deere 500B series Tractor, same size motor as a 3020 John Deere farm, but quite a bit heaver duty.  Thanks.
