AngrySailor Posted Saturday at 10:49 AM Author Posted Saturday at 10:49 AM Got that 454 fired yesterday. The fella that is buying it took a couple steps back when I banged it off the rev limiter at 7000 rpm 🤣. Found out there’s a tractor run today, checked the rack on the Detroitson last night and put the batteries in but one is shot (she’s 24v) so I’m going to see if parts store has a pair. If so I’ll trailer down to the clubhouse and go for a drive with the guys. 5 Quote

I drove it almost 20 miles, had a little fuel pump/filter/pressure issue I need to look at at but I put it on the trailer just last half ways through the run because the wheels were starting to crack at the spokes. They’re pretty thin and rusty. I need to change the wheels before driving it any more. 3 Quote

You reminded me to go have a look at buddy’s scrap yard… looks like I bought three more fordson’s… sigh… one F and two English N models. There’s 4 decent Fordson spoked rims for rubber tires, set of front and rears. One N might be restorable without too much work and the other two are really rough, parts tractors… 2 Quote
