    Posted: 27 Aug 2025 at 12:02pm
A 'Friend' of mine showed up last Friday with this Model C on his trailer and refused to leave without unloading it Tongue



The engine is stuck,  the tires are poor but they hold air, it rolls freely and the brakes seem to work, and the transmission shifts into all gears. The radiator is either brand new or has been rebuilt, it has a new temperature gauge and a new oil pressure gauge. It also has a 1-3/8" PTO shaft.

The color doesn't show well in the photo but it was painted silver Dead

He got this tractor thinking it would be a good parts machine for the derelict Model C I have been tinkering with, trouble is, this one looks to be in MUCH better condition Big smile My Grandson is already making plans for it Wink

Grandson got the engine unstuck yesterday afternoon; it rotates freely with the handcrank and makes enough compression to push your finger off the spark plug hole on all four cylinders.

That does look better than the other tractor - and now the engine is free. What's the serial number?
1939 B, 1940 B, 1941 WC, 1951 WD, 1952 CA, 1956 WD-45

1950! That should be within the last couple thousand built - about when they were changing over to the CA. I was guessing it was a later model so that makes sense. I'm not sure what year they went to 1 3/8" PTO shafts and AGCO's parts book doesn't show a SN break.
