New Stator, regulator, rectifier, repaired wiring harness, rebulit carb and fuel pump, head gaskets, replacment intake manifold. new oil cooler lines. lots of claening. Now has good spark, 100 PSI compression in both cylinders. Will soon be ready to fire up.

Keep at it and it can look like this one I have.Oh, in the case of this one I'm showing, you'd also have to convert it to as narrow front end. My other 5 are all original front end. Den

The narrow front was a mix of several items from around the shop.
The stem was from a "G" front end. The axles are the "spikes" or whatever you call the rods that help pull a crop into a combine cylinder. The rest is just metal for reinforcing, etc. The front end is not welded to the tractor, only bolted with just 2 holes need to be drilled. Front end could be moved to another tractor in about 2 hours would be my guess. Really the only thing I had to buy was the rims and tires. Den
