I have a distillate manifold on my '44 H. I'm switching the tractor back to original, so I want my manifold to work "correctly". This manifold might be difficult fix up. It's got some sort of coating on it, so I can't even read the part number. One of the heat shield studs is broken off, and the other is covered with the coating. But here's the hardest part: The selector handle is broken clean off. A guy with a junk manifold sent me the selector valve he literally cut out of the manifold. So, I may be able to replace it. But then I have to get the coating off, replace the studs, and then HOPEFULLY be able to do "whatever" to the inside to get the heat selection to actually work.
This morning a restored manifold went up for auction, but the price went through the roof very quickly, so that's out.
At my local junk yard is a '39 H with a manifold on it. I'm looking for your opinions of it. It's got a selector valve. It's got the studs. But it's pretty rusty on the top. I'm wondering if it fully restorable?

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