Well way back in March I bought a '51 SC from a high school friend of mine in Minnesota sight unseen, I had another friend of mine that lived in the area look at it and he said for $800- it was a good deal, bit rough cosmetically, but all there, with an original Case front end loader, a blade (farmer-rigged, hard to explain, no Eagle hitch) and a set of chains. It took until July to get my dad (he lives 50 miles from there) to get it hauled up to his forty in the country. I went up this weekend to do some Deer hunting (successfully!) and I saw the SC in person. It ran on two cylinders once I got her started, but then I found four mismatched plugs of different brands! Got her to run better. Took off the loader so I could store her in Dad's shed. Still misfiring, but compression is 100, 98,98,105. Needs plugs, wires and points. Question #1, the mag has been replaced with a right angle drive and a Delco-Remy distributor, how do I go about getting points and a cap for it? Will an Eagle hitch (it has hydraulics) adapt if I could find one REASONABLE? THere is a pic posted in the gallery "Case SC with Case loader" if anyone can identify the model of loader I'd be appreciative, and if anyone could point me towards a source for an orginal operators/service book I'd be VERY happy.
