Started work on my recently purchased County 1164.
Shes got a good engine, good rubber,trans, ect… needs clutch, brakes, electricals, steering work and sheet metal. I will fab new fenders, roll over protection, grill
guards and six way blade for the front. Gonna use it on our farm in So. Vermont and do light logging.
Wondering if pics of the factory clutch parts exist. Mine is out and is 14 inches across. Not worn bad at all but was way high. Think I sourced a new old stock clutch assembly in the US and am cautiously optomistic. Also have a lead on an 1124. Any help, warnings, comments positive or negative greatly appreiciated

My Friends have used the 1000 series Ford blue and the Fordson wheel Grey which matched the original paint on the old rounded mud guards.Looks the Goods.

Hi
I am in the middle of restoring an 1174. Its been a bit expensive as it has
needed one new engine four front hub casings and best part of the gearbox internals.
My next problem to takle, is loose ends on the front axle beam. I have some square
bar and a four jaw chuck and lathe. I would like to know what size the thread is
as I am not that up on thread sizes. If some one knows that would be brilliant.
Thank -You
Dan
