Ive thought about useing an old manure spreader frame, and makeing a front wheel drive looking tractor like the AC 6-12, Hoke, Moline Universal, Square turn, ect. I had thought of useing a small car/pk engine, trans, 4 cyl standard, cut the drive shaft down to nothing and mounting it on the spreader frame. I would like to use the bull gear on the spreader wheel and chain, for the looks. I would have to find a way of attaching a like gear on the R side of the rear end, and a pulley wheel on the left. My question is, How would I utalize the pulley wheel without the tractor moveing. I know that in the old days many farmers bought a pulley wheel, mounted it on their car and jacked the wheel up and ran a belt off of it without the car moveing. I dont know if that would be possible with modern rear ends. Also, Im not sure the axle would hold the weight of the engine, trans and rear end, and still pull say one or 2 David Bradley walking garden plows, or 2 DB discs, or a section harrow.
If it wouldnt hold the weight, Then, if I used a side shaft 14hp engine, how could I get the power from the shaft to the drive wheel, and utalize a pulley wheel
Id like to make this, and take it to steam and tractor shows, just to ride around on. My ankles are shot, and I cannot walk the distance of seeing these shows anymore.

The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
