We use an old IH 685 for a hay field tractor. Has a factory canopy. Probably one of the better hay field tractors I have used: Has 2 hydraulics, a 3 pt, and turns tighter than any other wide front tractor I have driven. Mine is a utility version, so it is low on the ground and easy to climb on and off of. Some of those old tractors are not thought out very well for that.
