Re: 444 deal or no deal
This is an early tractor with a manual deck lift and will not have an easy clutch. The only big catch in the box might be the muffler if it isn't rusted out.

@Harry If you were to mount a welder generator inplace of the k321 and change the hydralic motor to an electric motor you would have a hybrid mobile welder . A rack on the back could hold all your whips and stuff .

Re: 444 deal or no deal
While trying to bring my 446 up to a good condition, I realize how many parts are worn to the extreme. IMO looks like it will need a lot of money. But if you have a stash of good parts it will definitely be a project for sure.

I see the seller just reduced the price to $100. I would take it for free if he delivered it. LOL. Harry

Spike,
All 444's have hydraulic lift, even the ones earlier than this one. The lift lever can be seen in the photos posted.
