Found this old girl in the woods on a mountain here in Maine bout 12 yrs ago.I paid 100 bucks for it.[think I got took]I brought it home and freed it up by taking out the liners,pistons and all.I put heat to them and freed them up.I put it right back togeather just to see how it run.We goter running and it went pretty good so I put oil to the cylinders and parked it to rebuild later on.Friend of mine decided he wanted it worse than I did.John Tyler went completly through it.Valve job,new 22-36 liners and pistons,radiator,tranny bearings and a new clutch.He built cutoffs for it and bought new rubber.John also hand rolled and built the new fenders for it.Purrs like a BIG kitten and starts easy.John died this last Dec 12 and said in his will that if the family wanted it to give me first refusal.Here it is home again to parade and pull again.

Hey Hoss,
That's a mighty cool looking tractor!
I'm currently working on restoring a 22-36 from my mother-in-law's family that I got last August. I bought a second 22-36 (came from Kansas) because the engine on the mother-in-laws was so bad. Now, I'm in the process of getting things done: cylinder head work, carb and water pump rebuilds, reconditioned mag, etc. Hope to be able to try to start it up later this month.
Mine is on steel wheels.
Feel free to e-mail me and maybe we can compare notes!
Tom
 
Sure looks like it is a 1924 with no nut on the rear axle, small front wheel hubs. Can't quite see the manifold, but it looks really good to me. Like the early gear drive tractors!
 
Ill look under it tomorrow for the build date.Seems like it was sometime in 23.Also have wrong mag on it[F.M. model J],but it starts so nice with the impulse it aint funny! Hoss
