Positive is the way it came from factory and 8 volt normal to help with starting on the 6 volt system. Nothing Wierd about any of that. Ford use a resistor to cut point voltage to a bit over 4 volts they thought to keep from burning points, Think only manufacture to ever do that. Most put a full 6 volt to points so the 8 volt battery brought up the voltage at the points to what all others used with a 6 volt system to get spark for starting. As for the coolant remove the drain on block you trird to open and once the drain valve is out take a stiff wire and push into that hole, likley to be filled with rust and if it is you can feel it and keeping won working that wire untill you feel it breaking thru the crap in the block then if nothing still comes out take a air hose and blow air in, you should be able to feel the air comming out of the radiator, if you cannot then you have a major problem that the head will have to come off for. You might be able to flush out some of that crap with a water hose in that drain plug hole but not likely. If you can get air thru the system then you could fill with premixed antifreeze as that does not require an engine to run to mix it as using full strength and water does. That is a home built grill and the front wheels are from a Ford Car or pickup from 1936 to 1939, I am not sure about 1940 but 41 has the small hub 5 lug wheels same as the Model A.

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Traction - by Chris Pratt. Our first bout with traction problems came when cultivatin with our Massey-Harris Pony. Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
