My row crops

[stockman]

Just wanted to post some before pics of my little collection of row crops. Have a 501, 701 diesel, and a 901 diesel. Not much to look at now but soon to be better. Have started restoring the 901 already. May have questions along the way. I enjoy all the comments and have already learned alot just by reading. Thanks for what you guys do here.

Thanks for sharing, great looking rigs. I enjoy the x01 series. I have a '59 871 I hope to spruce up someday. The row crops are not common here in central BC. Keep us posted as you start into your projects.

Thanks,
Steve

In the first pic, why is that air intake tube there/going so high? Are the expecting it to run underwater? Should it have a normal oil bath air cleaner?

 

[souNdguy]

normally tall intakes are to get above the dusty region of air.. however.. yeah.. I'd like to have an extra cleaner in that pipe myself..

Brad_bb, That is how it looked when I got it. That is a piece of pvc electrical conduit with a spray paint can lid as a cap. Don't quite understand why, but I have the correct oil bath breather to go on it now.

That was the fording option - for working aquatic fields.
