The time has come to start pulling stuff off our 1946 McCormick W4, in an effort to get it back into running condition. We know the clutch needs to come out, seeing as it's stuck. We pulled off the hood, nose cone, gas tank, and various connecting rods to get at the top cover. We took great care to clean the surrounding area, so as not to knock any contaminates into the flywheel/clutch cavity. When we got the cover off, this is what we found.
We filled a 6 gallon shop vac with mouse droppings and bedding. As suspected, the clutch is shot, so we'll be ordering a clutch kit.
Next victim: Water pump!
