Folks, thanks for your opinions and encouragement. This is not a case of afordability, rather a 66 year old man deciding whether he's up to this challange. I'm not comfortable doing this engine. My career was farming and sending components like engines, IPTO, etc., out to professionals for rebuilding. As most of you know, I milked cows, and since I was never smart enough to hire a herdsman, milking cows was 24x7 most of the time. I could hire guys to run tractors, just never smart enough to hire animal husbandry personell.
The way I had this figured is $2,200. for the engine rebuild. Gas tank does not currently leak, however I have a 1/2" of epoxy on bottom side of tank, over and under tank support. That was done several years ago and is not going to last forever. Rest of front sheet metal is fair except the grill insert. Grill insert is trash. It needs rear rims and tires. Tires, tubes and rims are going to run $800. Fenders are a must, with fast hitch rockshaft mounted on them.
I'm looking at a non running Farmall 200, engine supposedly rebuilt two years before they stopped running it, and engine is not stuck. apparently it has rear end problems. The sheet metal and fuel tank are good and will bolt up. One item that interests me from 200 is the fast hitch remote valve and hydraulic manifold. I've always wanted to lift the 130 snow blade with remote cylinder, rather than rockshafts. Parts of the fast hitch on 200 are missing. I think I can buy it under $1,000. That 200 engine could have a lot of years in it. If not, I'll have a 354898 R1 block that will take 3.25 sleeves. Just a possible option.
