Interesting machine. I can see the track drive is right off the tractor/power unit drive axle but wondering how the excavator winches are powered. Being as the house turns along with the boom, mechanical drive would have to come up from the bottom of the unit. It would probably run better with a carb! Being an IHC engine, getting parts and rebuilding it wouldn't bee that big a deal.
