Well, I'm STILL working on the front grill and that might take a while. I have conquered the carburetor problem. The original carb on it was a TSX112 (for a Silver King), and a TSX114 was called out. After several times apart and back together with no success, I finally opted for a brand new Zenith carburetor (I bought it on this site), and now it runs absolutely perfectly. I guess there is something still amiss in that old carb, though I'm sure that I've got every passage clean.

Any way, it will be a while until I'll consider it finished, but I've got lights and lift, it starts and charges well, so that lets it be useful again.

If anyone knows of a decent front grill for sale, as well as the front half of the steel high pressure line from the pump to the mid line, I'm still looking for those.

Looks nice. What year is your VAC? I see that the lights are mounted ahead of the fuel tank. Does anybody know when they changed the location of the lights from the operator platform, or was there a choice on this? My 1950 had them mounted on the platform, but my 1949 parts tractor had them mounted ahead of the fuel tank. A 1948 purchased from the original owner that I know of has them on the platform, also. I'm a little confused on this one.

Case parts manual for Vac lists platform lights before s/n 5400000 and on a bracket forward of the gas tank s/n 5400000 and after. Joe

Boy-o-boy! Nothing like "action" carb pics! (last time I had action carb pics there was a fire...) (grin)

As always, it's a work of art.

If you've seen my last two posts- you can see that I've got lots of bare metal if you feel like painting anymore. (grin)
