Today I went to a tractor junkyard in my local area. I have been there to look around, but today I knew what I needed, so I wanted to see if they could accomodate me. In the past just asking a quick question I found out that their prices were what I considered pretty high. But today I gave the parts guy my full story, and he seemed very interested in helping me out with good prices. So, below is a list of parts I found that I need, and the costs. I have some questions below that, so please read on...
- Fenders (2) + attaching hardware - $45 each. (they look orginal, one is on a '39H, and the other is on a 300, but they look the same. A camera will determine if they are original and the same... I'll post pics soon)
- Narrow front end with casts, no rims: Damage to the right seal area - $175. I think I'm going to pass on this because I think it's incredibly expensive, and it's damaged.
- Light bar w/ 2 lights (no bulbs or lens) + attaching hardware - $45
- Oil pan in decent shape $45
- Throttle linkage arm + hardware - $15
- Hydraulic control arm and link rod $40
- Seat tube assembly (with spring and base) $20
- Amp control box $20
- Lower radiator pipe - $5
- Carb breather tube - $10
- H4 mag core (to give to Magman) $50
FREE WITH OTHER PURCHASE:
- Hydraulic line plugs
- Block water drain plug
- Rusted battery box support
- Wing nut carb adjuster
Questions:
- Are the lights repairable? One has a small dent in it. Is that repairable? Would it be smarter (cheaper) to buy these original lights and rebuild/restore them, or buy aftermarkets OEM lights?
- Can the throttle linkage arm be straigtened easily? How do you do that? I was going to buy a new one because mine is bent. But it's been welded, and the new one is pretty cheap.
- On the battery box support, it has scaled rust. Can that be restored to usable condition? I haven't seen them in a catalog, can they be purchased new?

Today's Featured Article - The Fordson F Ignition System - by Anthony West. A fellow restorer contacted me earlier this year asking for some help and advice on a model F that he was restoring. He had over a period of months spent a fair amount of his hard earned cash on replacement parts for the old "trembler" ignition. Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
