I am in the process of rebuilding a Cockshutt 1855 i bought last year. PO said all it needs is a engine overhaul.
Yeah right!.:roll:
I have so far 3 grand in the engine and 1 grand in the over/under + a new clutch..parts only!
The rad and the fuel tank both have a leak and need fixing too(relatively minor).The wiring is a complete mess and needs redoing as well and there are numerous other little things to attend to
I have no clue yet if the brakes are still good and if the main tranny and PTO has issues as the tractor needs to run to find that out and i ain't at that point yet.
And then it needs new tires all around.
By the time it is running and ready for work that tractor's gonna run over 10 grand in parts and labor and still be worth only 5 grand at best.
Needless to say i should've left the thing where it was.:roll:
