Certainly a conversation piece. I would love to own it, if it was closer.


Here is a click-able link to it.

I think he might be on something if he really believes the
50K number, but it might be cool to own whether it is
origiinal or not. If something failed I would hate to see how
much those rare parts are. Overall the whole tractor looks
nice, just needs to get the amoke taken care of.

It is a nicely done modification. It is NOT factory nor is it a dealer option. Frankly, the guy is spewing BS about the $50k factory option. Unless there is some obscure, never publicized piece of IH literature somewhere, this is a custom job, but as I said, a nicely done one. Not only that, IH made their own diesel engines, why would they put a Budah Lenova in one of their prototypes?

Cool setup, but little to no collector's value in my book. For some, would be a fun thing to have. I won't even venture a fair price, as it is not my cup of tea.

Offhand, I'd say the Budah-Lanova needs the timing
advanced a degree or two.

I live one town over and would not give a dollar for it

I agree on the tank, I was talking more about the engine mounting work. The tank mounting is a POS.....

Do not know what this conversion is.
While looking at it, I came across another conversion; possibly powered by a power unit.
Another Farmall mutt

The smoke probably got that far
