As long as you ask, Mike Noonan of the Forum and I are working together on similar but different projects this winter. Mike's is more ambitious than mine, so I'll let him tell you about his project.
Mine is repowering an Ingersoll garden tractor with a B125 AC power unit with B sheet metal, seat and fenders on the tractor. Lots of logistical issues, (the correct hydraulic pump selection being the big one right now) but it's definitely do-able. From the scale drawings, it has the potential to be a pretty cool piece.
My excuse for doing this is to have an easy way to move one of my power units around, but I'm really doing it to for the challenge and because I can. I will keep you posted with pics as I move along with the project. ------------- "The trouble with quotes on the Internet is that you can never know if they are genuine." - Mark Twain |

 Also have this in the shop, H3

I want to go over my B end to end.
Things that I know needing attention:
I also have work to do on my Ford LGT165, Ingersol 4016PS, & Case 444 garden tractors. Reconditioning projects are:
My Case 580B has a few hydraulic cylinders that need rebuilding and I have to address an issue with the starter too.
Probably all of that won't get done because I'm still trying to finish my house rebuild project. I really wanted to be done with the house before now, so that we could be moved into it for Christmas. The flooding around here really slowed things down & now it's deer season, so it'll probably be after the new year before we move in.

My goal for the rest of this year is to get the C that's been sitting in the shop for a little over a year back together and running. There is also a IHC super A behind it that needs about 8 hours of work before it can drive out, it's been in there for 3+ years. I need the space to bring in my AC forklift to repair the bad bearing in the water pump and fix the loose steering. I will also have to figure out why it only has 5 lb of engine oil pressure.

This will be the winter of "catch-up" for us with the business. Still trying to get the new electrical shop set up in the basement along with the computers, printers, etc. This coming Spring, plans for a new 30x64 pole barn are on the list. I have a lot of projects, but no place to do em' this winter till the barn goes up. I'll have to tarp everything up tight this Winter. The Tractors will have to stay out in the cold n' snow. Bummer! Oh well, the car projects are in the garage on the house. JoAnna keeps telling me: "its only temporary Honey"........ I hate the Winter months!!

Also have plenty of other work on all the tractors, wiring harness for the D15, charging system on the D17, and the HD3 to finish and take out and play with in the winter( I don't get yelled at for cutting up the lawn when its all frozen!!) ------------- 1955 WD45 diesel 203322 was my dad's tractor, 1966 D15 23530, 1961 HD3 Crawler 1918, 1966 D17 IV 83495, 1937 WC 41255, 1962 D19 6221 |

| Working on a `52 Massey Harris 44. The only off-color tractor in the stable. An old guy walked into my shop about 2 months ago, said he had an old tractor with a stuck engine. He owned it for 35 years and was giving it up on it. I asked "how much" hoping I could head for the door regardless of the amount. When he said it`s "free", you can have it, I went and got a chain and towed it a short distance to my shop, and have been working on it since. Feel like a "duck out of water" with this thing. He said he was going to call a scrap yard if no one wanted it. Turning into a money pit. Engine rebuild, brakes, wiring, starter, generator rebuild. Rim repairs from calcium chloride and that`s just what I`ve found so far. So far I have $1500 in a "free" tractor that`s worth maybe $2000. |

Currently have a WD-45 torn down that had low oil pressure. Got into it and all the rod bearings were spun, have not heard back about the crank to see if it could be ground or not. A complete overhaul in the works for that one. Also have a IH 706 in the shop for injection pump rebuild, new water pump etc. Later in the winter I have a D-14 to start full restoration on. And if time permits, a WD also in need of an overhaul. Luckily these are all customers projects so these will all be income to me. The only thing of mine I will be working on will be going through and rebuilding the injectors in the 180. ------------- 30+ A-Cs ranging from a 1928 20-35, to a 1984 8070FWA, Gleaner R52 |

It is sure neat to read about all your projects. And to see the photos of them and the shops that you have! ! I would sure like to have a D19 someday. But I have too many jects ow and need the money to finish them! I have a Coop/Cockshutt 30 that needs a bunch of work! And my WD needs 12 volt light bulbs put in it. And my wifes' 42 C needs some work. We have it scheduled for engine over haul, a young man in church is taking a Junior College Tractor Mechanics course and he needed a project or 2 to work on...so the C is one of his projects in late winter or next spring. I am looking forward to hearing the little C run good!
I also have a Ward's Chor track walk behind tractor that needs restored and a different motor put on it. And I have bee hives to make! So no shortage of work here! Pastor Mike in Iowa ------------- It is great being a disciple of Jesus! 1950 WD, 1957 D17...retired in Iowa, |

Good luck with that, I have one that's finally back together and was more like $3000 and it still doesn't run right. Grrrr, if it was orange I would have had it done sooner with less aggrevation. Starts (finally) after fuel delivery problems, but the govenor doesn't work right yet and the hydrualics aren't working, I think it's air locked or sucking air.

Immediate is just to put the chains on the 170 for snow removal, after that the 5015 needs work on hydraulics, wiring seems shaky, and it needs a look at the tranny as it jumps out of gear too often.
