I have this project in the back of my head for a tractor such as this.
Someday I'd like to build essentially a stationary power unit which would be donated from an IH tractor. This would run 1800 rpm with a 2x speeder drive to 3600 rpm to run a backup generator.
While I would never want to "kill" a tractor which was restorable, one like this might fit the bill as I'd basically need an engine and possibly a clutch.
I realize a diesel engine would be better in terms of fuel efficiency but a good ole IH gas motor is what I'd want (to be "common" with the rest of my "fleet", you know ;))
I would probably put a more modern Impco propane fuel kit on it as there are no fuel souring or gumming issues on propane.
