Cockshutt experimental tractors

O. K. In some literature I have it shows a model 50 with a Hercules engine. How easy a change was this? The reason I am asking is not too far from Bellevue a John Deere dealer traded in a 50 with a Hercules in it. Was it a repower or a factory tractor? What engine was in this model 60?
 
J I'm not aware of any of this I would guess that 50 was a repower. in this literature of your yours are you sure it is a 50 and not a 35 or golden arrow?
 
There were 3 experimental 580 Cockshutts built only 1 survives today.I've been around Bill Cockshutt and several very knowledgeable Cockshutt people and never heard of a model 60 except back in the 1940;s when Cockshutt sold the Oliver 60 under their own name.Not too hard put a 298 Hercules in a Model 40/50 but the tube frame has to be ground out.
