I was never around Case tractors much so Im limited about them. Have a guy that wants me to by his VAC. he said it was a very early one and had a flat head in it. I was trying to find some pictures or something about it on the web because I"ve never seen one with a flat head. can anyone give me some info on them? Are they rare? hard to find parts? It does not run but turns over. He said it has a cracked coil so who knows maybe thats all it needs? He says he would sell it to me for $200. He got it for that much a few years ago and doesnt have time to mess with it. Strait sheet metal,but bad tires. What do you guys think? I know he could get more for it if he scrapped it so I know the price aint bad,just wondered about finding parts.

sounds like a VC which was made in 1940-41 and is almost completely differen't from a VAC,it is a Continental flathead, they don't seem to get alot of collecting interest but I like them and $200 isn't hardly scrap price, if it has 32" tires they are hard to find and pricey

I looked up some pictures online. I noticed there seems to be a couple different grills. What years did they change? how many styles did they have?

Its a VC with a continental motor. Only made from 1939-41 or so. Parts are different than the VAC and getting harder to come by. Definitely grab it for $200 If you don't like someone else will buy it from you for more $$$. If you were close to central Iowa I would buy it.

Antique Tractor Wiring Basics - by Curtis von Fange. One of the most neglected parts of old tractors is the wiring. After sitting in the elements for half a century or more much equipment wiring has deteriorated to sparsely covered strands of copper or other metal. Plastic insulation has cracked, mice have eaten through the older clothed style coverings and the exposed wires have reacted to winter moisture and salts by turning blue and powdery. Terminal ends have corroded, rusted or just plain evaporated away. Aged wires not only keep an engin
