I don't want to have a problem with it getting wet. I've seen talk about different starters or something along those lines.

Anything special I should look for?
Any tests I should perform if I find one?
Any parts hard to get replaced if it's not working correctly?
Is one model better for maintenance than the other?

Like I said, I'm new to this stuff. Other than kicking the tires I'm not sure what to look for.

Thanks for your time!
TM

I'm kinda partial to the C. Mostly because it was my first rescue tractor. It is a great size and is darn handy. I love my Cub though. Maybe I should just get 1 of each Farmall model so I can decide........

TM, they both have 38" hind tires, so the axles are quite high. How deep would you have to go into the water??
As far as parts, many parts for both are still availlable through the dealer network, the rest are readily availlable form salvage yards. Both are quite common tractors.

as long as you keep the axle seals and all gaskets in good shape you shouldn't have any trouble wading some water.
