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. :)
Power Unit: Continental IY69. Likely out of a International 50-T hay baler.
Transmission/rear axle: From a Morris airport luggage tug.
Front Axle: I've been told it "looks International", but I don't know for sure.
Front Wheels: From a 60s Mini.
Steering: Wheel and gearbox from an early 60s Ford pickup.
Master Cylinder: '62 Galaxie.
Frame/Fenders Homemade.
Rear Wheels: 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. :)
