I saw two of these 45's similar to this. One had a 238 detroit ( no joke ), the other one a v6 deisel of some kind. This man also has several F20, F30s that he has modified one that has 3 F30 engines side by side on one F30 frame. To sumerize almost anything can be done, however I am happy to keep my old things running the way they came out.

Robert,

Looks great to me!! A lot of the "purists" on this site probably wouldn't like what you did to your WD, but anyone who does their own work on their own tractors (whether stock or modified) has got to admire the work you did to install that Dodge. I like original tractors myself, and am in the middle of restoring a 48' B, but I also build Street Rods, and I can appreciate what looks to be a super nice transplant! I like the way you even painted the engine orange. Pretty slick! I'm sure she'll haul anything. Even A**!! Did she couple to the stock drivetrain or did you have to do a lot of revising?

It's NOT my tractor. I saw this tractor in northern Ohio, and i thought it really looked like some one did very nice work. I've seen it running too, and it runs and sounds great!! Maybe some one here can tell us who the owner is????? Robert

I don't want to install one of these motors I was just curious what other people went through to accomplish it. I just used Dodge motors as an example. I just happened to hear about some poeple trying it and was just wondering what they went through to do it. Adam Davis

Why would you want to do something like this-there must be a chrysler product somewhere that would like this transplant more than your poor WD

Let me put it this way:

With enough time, patience, and MONEY, you can do just about anything. Are you sure you want to tackle something like this? It's not easy.
