A friend has a 1960 Massey Ferguson model MF65 with a 4 cylinder diesel. Somebody was mowing and knocked the oil filter off. The motor was run until it ran out of oil. It is now locked up so tight that pulling it around on the parking lot will not turn the engine. I am open to suggestions on where to start. Do these motors eat themselves without oil or do you think there is something salvageable in there?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
