Here is the video address for my 1952 Case DC3. Turn on the sound. Copy and paste the address into the Internet address window.
I acquired this DC3 from Dennis Majors who lived about 10 miles SE of Lacon, Il. The first pic shows me loading it on Jan 11, 2003. The head, mag, and some of the eagle hitch claw parts had been cannibalized. I was searching for a parts tractor when I bought it but later decided to restore it. Dennis said he thought the tractor had been used in the area north of Peoria. For several years in the 1990s, I had driven by a similar looking DC3 in the area he described. It was parked near a residential area and it never seemed to move. DC Cases always grabbed my attention but in the 90s I was not looking to buy one. It finally disappeared from the residential area. There is a good probability that this is the tractor I ended up with.
Oily rags had been placed over the cylinders so the sleeves were oiled. The sleeves looked in very good shape and, as I recall, they were the max 4-1/16 bore. That size seems hard to find. The block serial number matched and was not cracked behind the intake manifold like many are. I had a spare high compression head (A5505A) with all the valves. Distributors were available on EBay. The video shows it plowing in Sept and Oct 2004 twenty months after I acquired it.

I have been restoring old Farm Tractors for the past 6 years, and have found it easier and less expensive to hit all the auctions and purchase whole tractors for parts needed.
