The SuperC was first. I expect it had been stuck and broken loose by towing it and poppin' the clutch as she was spoutin' oil drops from broken rings. On that one, I've rebuilt the motor, hydraulic block and brakes, and the usual odds and ends.
The BN was a family tractor that I learned to drive on forty some years ago. It got out of the family for five or six years and left to ruin out in a field, but I found her and got her back. She's been rebuilt just like your C. Motor was a waterlogged disaster. Every seal gasket and bearing oer the length of her replaced (except for the left diff shaft bearing in the tranny -- I haven't been able to get that bearing cage out without bustin' it, and I can't get new seals to hold oil there -- gonna have to find a fix for that. The parts are waiting.), stripped down, painted and rewired. That was a pretty rewarding project. I only finished last year.
If you want, shoot me an email -- skt4 at columbia dot edu -- and I'll shot you back a link to a simple website I'm buildin' (i.e., not done yet) that shows some of the work. I'd post the link here, but it really isn't ready for prime-time yet!

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
