 Topic: My 35 WC lives again
Posted: 15 Jun 2011 at 1:37pm |
Got it out of the shed after about an 8 or 10 year rest. Carb and tank had been drained. Put gas in, it took 6 or 8 quarters on the crank and she came to life. That was sweet music to my ears. Think I will take it to the Indiana AC Partners show next week. I just had to share!

How about this a 76 year crank tractor that has not been started in 8 to 10 years. First off it is not stuck. Second with fresh gas and a relatively few cranks IT STARTED. Just shows you how good they made them Proud to have sold them. Good Luck! Bill Long

S/N is 3548. Had to take a donor block from s/n 9000 something as the original block had a real ugly patch bolted onto the side. Its had a lot of donor parts to get it to be this straight. I've recently been clearing some things out of my barns and can now organize (and enjoy) my WC collection better.

Great looking tractor, I like the round spokes and the wide front.
