I guess it is the fall air and the harvest moons. For some reason this time of year gets me excited for tractor restoration. I can't seem to get enough of it, until it is time to pay my bills. Every tractor I've ever bought has a stuck engine. I was thinking of buying an F-20 with a loose engine this week and thought, what fun would that be. I love taking a stuck engine and over coming the obstacles to get it unstuck. No better feeling in the world once you separate those lovely pistons from the sleeves. When I’m having a rough day and wishing I were in the shop. I just drop in on this forum and it takes me to a happier place. Hard to believe I restore these old beauties for stress therapy. I’ve attached a picture of a project F-20 I’m finishing. I got another F-20 ready to be freed up and I’m all excited about it. What’s your favorite part of the restoration? I enjoy hearing everyone’s recipes for freeing up an engine.
