Hello,
You are right that elwood was a common front
end on these tractors, but coleman had an
mfd that was available as well. The Coleman

The Elwood was a better more nimble unit but
the splines on the shafts and any moving
piece was notorious for wearing out and
failing. Salvage yards may have the parts
needed to rebuild them but since the
numbers were very limited and it has been 25

thought often of doing what you propose, but
just haven't because of the trouble it would
take to assemble everything and get the
tractor operational. I hope you do it, it should
be fun to watch.
