The 300 has an aftermarket key switch without the key and a small start button that is frozen. I am wondering if I should replace those items with new ones or get a on/off/start key switch. I am not concerned with authenticity, this will be a working tractor with a 12V conversion with alternator. I am just wondering what will be the cheapest and/or most reliable way to set this up. Any advice will be much appreciated. Zach [Reply]   [No Email]

After my work for the day was done I just had time to run down to NAPA and get the parts. For about $80 I got two coils of wire, 3 12 volt lights, a 48" #2 battery cable, a toggle switch for the alt, a push-pull ignition switch and a small start button type switch. Now I just need to put it all together and borrow the battery out of the H. Rankrank, I traded the SC for a complete non-running H with a 3 point hitch and some money, so I will be able to get my money by parting the H out. I still do have that mounted plow, I keep hoping someone will want it but I guess there is plenty of time. Zach [Reply]  [No Email]

Also, Did you ever sell Super C? This post was edited by rankrank1 at 13:22:18 08/18/12 2 times. [Reply]  [No Email]

Thee key switch is a simple keyed universal one and the black momentary switch is the starter button. Added in if the Ford style starter relay. Works good and was cheap. Rick [Reply]  [No Email]
