Farmall Restoration in Gilroy

WSJ · Oct 30, 2010

I bought my first Farmall H 25 years ago, after a valve job and four new tires it has been used to disc my walnut orchard every spring, in Gilroy, CA. I acquired a second Farmall H a few years ago, this summer I rebuilt the head, replaced the clutch, seat, hitch and gave it a new coat of paint.

I installed a 12 Volt solid state generator regulator, which works with the original 6 Volt generator to charge a 12 Volt battery. I also designed a tool to install the clutch release bearing sleeve bolts.

To see more pictures of the restoration and my electric car, click on the WWW link below.

How does the 12 v generator regulator work together with a 6 volt generator to a 12 volt battery , how far did you get into main seals and bearings

The voltage at the battery is 14.0 Volts. The main seal and bearings were not changed. The engine has no leaks or unusual sounds.

Great looking tractor!! Must be Gilroy,Calif.by the fact that it has single front wheel. I think they look better with single fronts,of coarse that was all we used in fresno, in cotton country.Hope you bring it to Tulare next April.
