I’m looking at what I thought was a ford 600 as advertised and by the front hood emblem, however based on the stamping on the tractor it appears to be an 860??? I’m confused any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

One of the easiest things that could have changed or been replaced over the past 60 years would be the emblem. Then again the whole hood could have been replaced at some point. Maybe the original 600 tranny went caput and they stuck an 860 rear on? What engine does it have, the 134 or the 172? Block casting codes would tell us…though that may have been swapped as well! She’s a Ford all right

Yeah 1957 Ford 860, 172 cu in engine, 5-speed transmission with live PTO
 
To confirm engine is a 172 (800) and not 134 (600) look at engine casting code. Probably is EAF6015 for 172, confirming tractor is an 800-series. If it's EAE6015, that's a 134 and you should investigate further.
Where is the engine casting code located?
 
Engine block, right side, near bottom center. Also there's a suffix letter at the end, probably EAF6015J for the one you're looking at.
This what they gave me see attached picture, no idea what that number is

Wow, D2NL6015C is a 192 cu in industrial engine designed in 1972 for used in the tractor division by Industrial Engine Parts & Service. The 192 is basically a further development of the 172 tractor engine for industrial uses and they are compatible in most ways. One difference is the 192 has provisions for a fuel pump. Substituting a 192 into 800/801/4000 tractors seems to be fairly common.

Thank you, I guess I’m gonna pass on this and keep looking, I really appreciate your help, thanks very much!
 
If you are going to pass, please put a post about it on the Ford forum here. A lot of Ford guys would love to have that.

Does having that combination of motor make it anymore special? I was not familiar with that motor option.

It looks like he took down the post I will ask him for a new link

That was never an engine option, but they would get subbed in if an engine had a major problem. They are tough to find now.

Should the non original engine make me walk away? I rally like this tractor but I’m Leary as I don’t kmow enough about this engine for instance can I get parts?
 
It’s a Frankenstein tractor built from various parts
Rear axle is 600 along with the sheet metal and fuel tank, transmission is from an 860 and engine is a 72 industrial
860 and 660 5 speed live pto transmissions are the same so essentially it’s a 600 series 660 model repowered with an industrial engine

I’m not familiar with the later industrial engines
What part of the casting numbers say it’s a 192
We have a D3 engine that’s a 172 diesel

A search of the Internet and Ebay for that casting number comes up with 192 Industrial, didn't see any examples of that casting being used for 172 but hey I suppose it's possible.

How do you figure the rear axle is a 600?
