 Topic: Got the CA running good!
Posted: 31 Mar 2010 at 9:21pm |
Got got my '52 CA going Sunday. Runs strong and everything seems to work like it should (except the @%#% generator so far). Got a few little things to get squared away and a little tuning to do, it wants to dog out and jump a little in 4th gear, but I'm happy with it so far. My grandson sure seemed to like it.

Looks good. Much better than the first time we saw it. Good luck with it, and keep the grandson on it as much as you can. I spent a lot of time on a C with my grandad when I was a little fella. Makes for some good memories later.

I probably scraped and washed off 100lbs or more of crud, grease and mud dauber nests.

Ahh a pin hitch CA. What's the serial number? I have Dads 51 #669. I have the angle iron cultivator mounts and the front cultiv mount. I also have the 2-14 plow the 6' disc he got for the C, a 5 ft sickle mower and the 2 row cultivator.

Tractor # is CA 11282, the engine was replaced some time in it's life R14620G.
I'm planning on putting a 3 pt. on it. Pin hitch implements are kind of scarce around here and my uncle only had a 2 bottom and a 3 bottom plow with the pin hitch, everything else he had was pull type stuff.

Which reminds me, I saw what was either a CA or maybe a small D-series on the way up to Rome GA yesterday. Couldn't tell much about it. It was under a metal carport and had a blue tarp covering most of it. Did notice it had some pretty heavy-duty rear wheel weights. If I finish up in time tomorrow, I might ride back down that way and have a closer look.

That's pretty neat. Is that shop built or store bought?

Everything is from a Cross Manufactured 3 pt. except for the horizontal cross member holding up the bail, it was home made, I dont' know who made it I bought it from Leon B. It Bolts to the sides of the final drives, works really well. I don't think anyone is making a 3 pt that will bolt right up the pin hitch tractors. I can take some close ups tomorrow if you would like to see it better. Ron

I'd appreciate that.
I've been looking at the ones shown on OKtractors website but I don't have the funds yet.

The 3 pt from OK Tractor will work, you'll just have to fabricate a cross member to hang the drawbar bail.

Thanks for posting those pics Ron. I had to go out and look at the finals on mine to see if it had the bolt holes (It does). I can see what I'll need to make it work for me.
I've got permission to scrounge my late uncles junk piles, I'll have to see what I can find.
