OS4 Update and WWII question

Posted by Greg-N-CA on September 04, 2006 at 06:55:04 from (4.246.212.32):

Well, on go advice, I'm now the third owner of a 1944 OS4. We were able to start it yesterday and it runs great! After letting it sit with oil in the cylinders for a few hours, we were able to pull start it and run/drive it for about 30 minutes. There is no blow by, the exhaust is clean, and it has great oil pressure.

The hood is in excellent condition, the fenders are serviceable, but the grill is shot. The deal came with a perfect H grill to use as a possible trade for a good OS4 grill. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I might facilitate this transaction?

I was told that the original owner returned from military service in World War II and was "assigned" this tractor. Can anyone tell me how the selection process was conducted for farm equipment allocated to our returning servicemen?

Thanks, Greg
