I found a couple of fenders in a "junk pile" on a farm down where I grew up and I am trying to ID them. I thought that they could be 33-34 Ford, but I think that they are Dodge Bros. or Chevy. Thanks in advance for the help. Also, the farmer has an overhead valve industrial 4 banger from a "hay mower" that bolts right into an 8N Tractor. He claims that it is worth some coin and it has the "side" distributer on it. I asked around locally and everyone claims that Ole' Henry built the banger stuff so it would bolt up on the car/tractor's. Hmmmmmmm, I did not take any pix of the motor though. I will try to get some this weekend. The ole' farmer also told me that he has a mess load of old Chrysler's up on the hill with the spark plug wires going thru the valve covers. I may try to get shots of them. Chris Nelson Kansas
The engine you mentioned is a 134cid or 172cid that fits a '53-'64 ford 600 to 4000 tractor. It doesn't fit a 8n,which had a flathead 4 and was a very different tractor. i put one of these engines in a model A years ago and it wasn't impressive. If you want to try it,the flywheel and bellhousing from a 223 ford six bolt on. A toploader 4 gear fits the '62-'64 bellhousing. Your better off with one of the car motors with the toyota valve covers.
