Greetings from the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. I am new to the forum and wanted to post my most recent purchase to share. An ED 40 that spent most of it's life at the Homestead Resort pulling a finish mower. It runs and seems like a solid candidate for a resto.I hope to learn all I can from you folks about this model farm tractor. I've included a picture.....

Welcome. It's nice to find a complete running ED40 Those have some unique problems that some that have them can help you with.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |

Yeah, IIRR, the most common major problem is that something in the lift breaks a casting...

Thanks for the heads up on the casting issue. Right now, I need to replace a steel hydraulic line before I can start it.
It is missing all the 3 pt. hitch equipment. I hope that's not a bad sign of things to come. No draw bar either. The exhaust is also missing. Just the down pipe from the manifold. I don't have big plans for the tractor. Maybe pull a mower once in a while. Parades and Steam and Gas shows. Something to tinker with in retirement.
