1872 winter project

11 Attachment(s)

Dug into the 1872 yesterday, and went full out disassemble mode today.:biggrin2:
I've got engine leaks out of every place possible... A lot of debris around the stator, but nothing in the flywheel shroud. So started by pulling the engine, then figured I may as well get the fenders off and see what's lingering under them.
Surprised it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Bonus, trunnion is in very good condition:beerchug:
Now to get a day above freezing to pressure wash the tractor. But in the meantime start disassembling the engine.

Looks like good bones to work with. How many hours on the tractor?

If I had your money Sam, it would be nice to have a "BIG V Twin":biggrin2:
I've got the rear braces on, put them on right away when I got it...
It already has A "nice paint job":bigthink:
