Sounds like a real project! Is the engine stuck or will it turn over? If the T/A is unhooked it's probably not working. With tires it sounds like at least a $2000 project to me just in parts. I haven't had to rebuild my 300U engine yet but from what I've seen in catalogs you will have to replace the conrods too to fit available piston sets unless there is some kind of bushing available. If the engine will turn over I would start by getting it running, clean the carb/fuel system, new points and condenser, wires and plugs. If it is running that will let you tell before you start rebuilding if the clutch and tranny are good, if the T/A is good, if the hydralics work and on and on... That way with a small output of $ you can get a better idea of what work you are going to have to do and if the effort will be worth the time and $. You may decide that you have a great parts tractor... Lance
