Some of you may remember a couple of years ago I posted some pics of my friends tractor and automobile graveyard. I called
him this morning and asked if he had a K301 I could get from him. He said come on down and we'll look. Had to talk my wife into it since I'm still not able to drive. This is what we found.
The engine is a 1968 K301 from a 123. It's just sitting in my frame until I can clean off my work table. According to Carl, it was running about 5 years ago before his brother died. He has pulled parts from it to repair others, but never started this one after he parked it. He also said that his brother rebuilt it about 2 years before he died.
I'll pull the head and pan Monday to check it out, and hopefully have it running by the middle of next week.
Best of all, it was free.
