Ford 5000 Tractor Project
My Grandson found this Ford 5000 Tractor on a farm next to where he lives. The lady’s husband had passed and she was moving to town, my Grandson saw this tractor setting in their barn so he called his Grandpa to come and buy it and add it to his collection.
It has been setting for the last 10 years but we got it running and brought it home. The motor needs to be overhauled so we will do that next spring and give it some new paint as all the sheet metal looks good, tires are nice too. Looking forward to this project with my Grandson!

Dylan Good find. By the time your Grampa’s age you’ll have 100 tractors in your collection. Brad
Dylan, I now own this tractor. I was wondering if you have more history on this tractor? did you actually overhaul the engine? is it mostly original?
