Here's a Beaver III I bought at the junk yard.
It looks really rough, didn't run and I paid more than I should've.
But I like it.
I found a few air leaks in the fuel system.
Put a used battery on it.
Replaced a freeze plug and a new radiator cap.
Three tubes, crossed my fingers and fired it up.
It runs good, the clutch is strong and it drives around in first. Only.
Once I get a look at the gear boxes I'll be consulting the Tractorbynet.com gurus as to what the loud grinding/rattling is in the back end.
The PTO works but the lift doesn't come up and the shifter won't put it into any other gears.
Here's a picture and a link to it running.
