Potential B w/loader purchase

[T-Mo]

I may go look at this B. Seller sells it runs good and starts easy - he's used it for the last 5 years, but don't need it anymore and says it's just taking up space. He's supposed to send me videos of it running, driving, etc., as it's a fair drive for me, 6 hour round trip.

Also, I could use some info on the loader and if it's an IH one, or home made, etc.

The loader is a Wagner, I believe. Not sure of the model.

The seller sent me this video.

Asking price is $1100. It won't fit onto my trailer, but I can get a 16 foot trailer, but it only has two ramps and I think I need a third ramp.

To me, that's an $1100 winner all day long. Nice find.

I agree - I just need to locate a trailer, big enough and with enough ramps, to load it and haul it. After using John's Cub with loader, I been wanting a tractor with a loader and this B popped up. I will need some rear wheel weights probably.

Three ramps are not entirely necessary if they are short enough. I loaded/unloaded my B using this technique on a stock car trailer with removable fenders.

Yeah, I seen another video of someone unloading a Farmall F-20 using two ramps - I just don't think I'm that good, especially considering I won't be familiar with the B.

I have loaded and unloaded a Farmall H that way, but a B with a loader is going to require a good bit of arm strength. LOL

I have another question, considering this is going to be on short notice, with not enough time3 to order any special hardware, how do you tie down the front of a B? the rear is no problem.

There are some tapped holes in the front casting. I threaded in a couple of tie-down rings.

Off hand, do you know the thread size of those tapped holes?

so you bought it? congrats!! great running tractor. I had a B with a single front wheel. I do have a third ramp

3/4 inch standard thread

[T-Mo]

And by "standard" thread, I would assume - coarse thread? 10 threads per inch? or 16 threads per inch....

John and I are going after Saturday, if all goes as planned. Let's hope there are no hiccups in our plans.

Yes, 3/4-10.
