Guess I should not say bad engine , just non running engine. The tractor sold for $3200.00. More than I wanted to gamble on the unit.
 
I would love to find a good 4010 or 4020 to put this baby in

Hi Don't forget letter series tractors in any color are going out of fashion and down in price, unless it's real rare. Anything with numbers is getting collectible by the next generation, that grew up with them. Go look at some of the stupid prices on Tractor house or some of those sites. Don't be sipping coffee when your'e looking if you think that was enough ;).
 
(quoted from post at 18:14:13 11/30/15) That appears to be a 66-68 original 4020 engine..

It's a 68. I bought the tractor from a guy that had a barn fire. He said the fire had gone up the walls of the barn and across the ceiling over top of the tractor. So it took some heat from the sides and above and also chards of burning debri fell down on it (the tractor itself wasn't actually on fire). The fire crew was able to hook to it and pull it out of the barn but only after dumping huge amounts of water on it. When I got it, it was in pretty bad shape. Everything that wasn't metal was toast. The motor was also stuck. I suspect that once the rubber hose around the intake pipes burnt off, water entered the intake. I put new injector tees on and was able to get it running. But just to be on the safe side, I decided to have it rebuilt. So complete overhaul and I also sent the pump off to be freshened up as well. When we pulled the motor, the clutch to our surprise appeared to have been done recenently. This was on it

The black parts on the motor are places where the green paint burned off down to the original black primer. With some paint, this would be a like-new motor. I took a video of the tractor when I first got it running. I'll have to post that up when I find it.
