Don't blame you Mealman - SOS to be avoided at this age. I share your interest in an old 5000, and if I put the search into reality I will go for a pre-force. Potentially more problematic, but they always remind me of my Corgi model which was my pride & joy in the late 60's!
The Wood Field one looks good, once the horrid (Sekura?) cab comes off.

i liked the woodfield one.....a continental tractor but unfortunately itis sold

Mealman, what makes it continental? The wrong aircleaner? Also wrong exhaust for the pre-force...

 

[mealman]

yes the air cleaner
