My Uncle purchased a Super C back in the 70's, excellent condition. Unfortunately his son, who decided for a number of years to farm, went through all his tractors and trashed them (including an immaculate JD 4020 that was his grandfathers) and eventually got to the Super C. He wore out the engine in short order then decided to rebuild it. He tore it all apart and that's where it sits today, 25 years later. Parts are scattered about, tires are flat on the rear and rotted. So, purely out of sentimental value, I have always thought of purchasing it from my uncle and rebuilding it. It needs everything engine-wise - a complete kit with pistons/sleeves, etc. bearings, all seals, cam bearings, absolutely everything. Crank is rusted so will need to be ground. Assuming all the parts are there, and knowing what the engine needs, plus the tractor needs all tires, is it worth it even if it's given to me (or close to it)? You guys can help me put sentiment aside...
