Good afternoon, and thanks again to all who gave me advice about my Ford 860 double clutch replacement last fall!
Heres a link to one of the previous threads about the project:

I ended up bring the tractor home and successfully changed the clutch over the winter. Figured as long as it was back in civilization for the winter, I might as well tear it apart and rebuild it. I should note that I did this before with a 1954 NAA and went a little overboard. The resulting tractor turned out looking more like a trailer queen than a mowing tractor, so I picked up this 860 to do the mowing instead.....
I might have made the same mistake again! Heres the prettier up 860. Its a late 1957 tractor, and when I stripped the paint on the hood, it had a decal ghost of the word Powermaster and the spinning gear. I was able to find a repro decal that was almost a perfect match.
