Engine was seized (water) so has been sent off for a rebuild. Meanwhile the rear has been improved. Gone is the European hitch, replaced with drawbar. Changed the link arms, added sway blocks. Everything is tight and moves now. Just need to change the scvs for long stem ones then the rear end is complete. Seat has had new cushions put on it and we have started straightening the hood as best we can. [Reply]  [No Email]

Thing is we just dont have the amount of these tractors that you do over there. We might see 5 4020s for sale a year, and even fewer 3020s. we dont have the choice of nice straight originals.

Mut there have been uglier machines than those put back together, and some nice looking machines from them have arisen. Have fun. [Reply]  [No Email]

The 3020 does have some parts that look usable and if you could put the HFWA from 4020 on 3020 you would have a $30,000 tractor or more.The 4020 even being a late 71/72 syngro if it wasnt for HFWA I dont see much that is salvageable.I like that the plastic wrapper is still on whats left of seat.Definately a big project and I know of $100.000 cars that started out as basically a serial # on a frame.

We arnt sure if we are going to tackle the 4020. Believe is or not those pics don't show how bad it really is. Supposedly the motor runs but the balancer has had one of its 2 studs (i cant think what to call them broken off) [Reply]  [No Email]

That sure is going to be a nice 4020 when its done. My father and I got a 4020 from a guy and he bought it from france. It looks identical to yours with the lift asist three point hitch. I was just wondering if you know the serial number, it would be nice to compare it to ours and see if the numbers are close. I attached a picture but dont have one of the rear end to show you the resemblance. thanks and good luck with your restorations. [Reply]  [No Email]

Yes Pat we have had to have that done too, either that or gas the axles which looks horrible. [Reply]  [No Email]
