Second try, goofed up the first I guess... Yes, that's me, otherwise known in obscure circles as Mike Danford of Chickamauga, GA. Using the numbers you provided I have a parts and operators manuals on the way (supposedly). The guy I spoke with said he didn't see a service manual available, we'll see what I get and go from there. All the little straps look ok except the thinnest one. You said they are resistors, are they some kind of special metal or something? I notice the guage of whatever they are goes from thick to thin, and the lengths are the same. Anyway, looked the thing over more carefully today and it looks pretty good. I'll want to check all the wiring out before I try to fire it up, there's a micro switch that looks goofed up, don't know EXACTLY what it does, but will be easy to repair. All the brushes are in good shape, the armature could use cleaning. Missing one of the little brush springs. I imagine I'll have to rebuild the carb, fuel pump and replace plugs maybe wires and points. Now I'm rambling, thanks for the help, expect an email from me now and then as I work my way along, if you don't mind. For what it's worth, I called a welder repair guy a couple days ago who knew exactly what this thing was and was adamant that it was obsolete, parts/manuals weren't available and to just get a new welder. Funny how everything I own that was welded when this thing was new seems to be just fine... Take care, thanks again, Mike

Madison's County - by Anthony West. Philip Madison has been a good friend of mine for quite some time. He has patiently suffered my incessant chit chat on the subject of tractors for longer than I care to remember, and on many occasions he has put himself out, dropped what ever it was he was doing, to come and lend a hand cranking handles, or loading a find onto a trailer. Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
