I just got this a couple of months ago. If not had much time to work on it yet. It's a 57 420C with a late 420/430 engine.

It will be restored, one day.....
I use it, if I need it. I used it cleaning out a fencerow just last week but it's not really a work machine. I would like to find a ripper for the back. That would really make it complete.
I'm a 40 guy but, like you, wanted a 420 (I love that yellow on the hood). I looked for one a couple of years before I found one like I wanted and in decent shape mechanically. It is a serial number 100XXX and mechanically it's not too bad. Not so pretty right now though. But with the help of all the experts on this board, I'm sure I'll "Get 'er done".
