I appologize for the late response as I was our of the country until yesterday. Yes I do still have the Ford. Two Christmas' ago I completely rebuilt the engine, but it sprung a leak on my Dad a month later and it threw a rod again. So this past summer I tore the engine apart and it is currently in a box in pieces. The tractor is sound, but the engine obviously needs some new parts or to be completely replaced. I would be interested in selling it, where are you located? The original engine is a Kohler Magnum 18 horizontal shaft, but a friend of mine has a Kohler Magnum 18 verticle shaft that he got for free in a tractor that someone threw a rod in. I have been using parts from his verticle shaft to rebuild mine these past four years. However, I have now used so many of his parts that it would require finding new or used Magnum 18 parts from somewhere else. Let me know what you think, but at think point I'd like to get $300 for it. I could even throw in both all the Magnum horizontal and verticle parts.
