1953 Farmall Super C

Postby Sterff89 » Sun Aug 07, 2022 1:10 pm

Here is my latest project. I've been slowly working on it in the 2 weeks I've had it. The biggest issue has been rust in the fuel system. I cleaned the tank several times and added an inline filter to hopefully keep the crap out of the carburetor. It shined up pretty good with some linseed oil and some minor painting. Also I made some tie-down plates for it. Id like to buy a 200/230 parts tractor at some point and put a fast hitch on it.
I did have two extra weights so I put them on, also fixed some wiring and got all the lights working, as well as general maintenance and repairs.

Thanks! I like restored tractors but, sometimes the old ones with some patina look good to me.

I just power washed and scrubbed with simple green to get the mud stain off. I did use tire paint on my cub with good results. This one I’m going to probably use quite a bit so I didn’t bother yet.
