Thinking about this WC, but it just don't quite look right to me. Is it me, or is there something amiss?

Wheels look like 26 inch rims and it has pie weights also the shroud around the tank doesn't look right

Looks kind of like the gas tank support for an unstyled WF.

The gas tank is moved forward up under the hood. Makes the tractor look unusually long.

Looks like an RC belt pully with unstyled WC radiator and hood cut to be like U/UC with unstyled WC fenders. MM rear wheels?

The hood, gas tank, and rear hood support are off a 201 power unit. The power unit gas tanks are mounted under the hood and are smaller than the tractor tank. Matt

Thanks guys! If I got it, it would be to restore, err... repaint and make it original. It would probably take more $$ and time to bring back to original than I would want to invest. I knew something was wrong. Never had an unstyled, only a styled... many decades back.

I don't know about that. WF or 201 power unit parts are more rare, WC parts are a dime a dozen. It may take a little while to sell them, but you should be money ahead to sell the incorrect parts, and buy the right ones. Then you have the joy of putting it back the way it should be, and in theory you won't add any more cost. $650 is about as cheap as you will find a WC, unless you run into the person who doesn't know scrap value is at an all time high.
