I'm a newbie to tractors and machinery in general, but I have a tractor my Grandfather built around 40 years ago. I've had this tractor for a while, but only recently became interested in how it works and doing some maintenance.
I've made a few posts on this forum asking questions and a few people asked to know more about this tractor in my last post. Here is the best rundown I can produce.
[b:5199dc40b7]Power Unit:[/b:5199dc40b7] Continental IY69. Likely out of a International 50-T hay baler.
[b:5199dc40b7]Transmission/rear axle:[/b:5199dc40b7] From a Morris airport luggage tug.
[b:5199dc40b7]Front Axle:[/b:5199dc40b7] I've been told it "looks International", but I don't know for sure.
[b:5199dc40b7]Front Wheels:[/b:5199dc40b7] From a 60s Mini.
[b:5199dc40b7]Steering:[/b:5199dc40b7] Wheel and gearbox from an early 60s Ford pickup.
[b:5199dc40b7]Master Cylinder:[/b:5199dc40b7] '62 Galaxie.
[b:5199dc40b7]Frame/Fenders[/b:5199dc40b7] Homemade.
[b:5199dc40b7]Rear Wheels:[/b:5199dc40b7] Maddawg tires, hub caps from a '56 Chrysler New Yorker. Not sure what the hubs are from- they actually fit on backwards.
Here are some photos of it. Underneath each pic I've included a link to a high resolution version in case there is something you'd like to zoom in on.
