Auction results in SE-SD a question.

Posted by jal-SD on June 02, 2003 at 07:05:45 from (12.17.66.80):

Went to a farm sale Saturday 5/31 w/400 gas, SM (Stage I), H & B on it. All tractors had their "working clothes" on & they hadn't been washed in a loooong time. SM (serial # 1100)sold first. It had fair paint, a Shwartz WF, good tires, no PS, 12V conversion, straight sheet metal, started & sounded good, pulley attached - $1,900. 250 series DuAl loader mounted on SM then sold for $300, same guy bought it.
400 (serial # 21449) sold next. NF, good tires, no PS, 12V conversion, pulley attached, straight sheet metal, fair paint, TA said to be OK, started & sounded good - $2,000.
H (serial # 280706) was next. Good paint, old style seat, NF, good tires, distributor instead of mag, no PS, straight sheet metal, started & sounded good, pulley attached - $1,000.
B sold last-I couldn't find a serial #, it had an old style H-M seat on it & no # stamped on the block. I don't remember how to read casting codes, so I didn't look at them. Poor paint, broken & welded up front bolster, but a good job-looked like it had been repaired many years ago, fair rear tires, front ones held air, but needed to be replaced, distributor instead of mag, a little blue smoke on start, but sounded good, Farmall emblem grill there, but bent up, (probably repairable) hood straight, rear pulley attached - $1800.

Now for the question - I've got a parts F-12 that has a broken block & the head, mag & manifold have been used to keep other F-12's alive. The rest of the F-12 is OK, even the radiator. I have access to a C-113 combine engine that runs. I realize that it may be sacrilege, but has anyone ever tried to put a C-113 combine engine into an F-12 frame? Thanks for the comments!
