Alright guys, I need some help... I have this 1947 JD B that most of you have seen ( attached is a pic )and I am unsure of what to do and would like a few opinions! Here is the situation: AntiFreze leaks from manifold bolts Gas leak from bottom of tank Generator doesn't work Ringgear and starter are about worn out Lights / wiring don't work Wico Model C Mag failed on me, should I buy and X? and there is still more... I personally like the hand start JDs over the electric starter, so here are my thoughts:
Option 1, fix everything and make it all work right.
Option 2, fix engine problems, remove everything electric (lights, gen, starter, etc.) and put on a hand start flywheel, re paint everything, remove the hood extension panels, and battery and stuff, and just put the end cap on the hood, and change the operators pedestal form a dash to just a stick for the steering shaft.
If i can get all of the parts I need to switch it to hand start $150 or under, what do you guys think I should do? I would really like to know your personally pros and cons of this plan! Thanks in advance, here is a pic! Bryce
