Ford & Small Engine Haul

[Mike'sHorseBarn 2,697]

I've been after this collection for a while. This belonged to an older gentleman from church, we would always close the building down talking about tractors. He was a true blue ford guy from his vehicles to his socks and a real nice guy. He passed 3 years ago from complications from diabetes and his wife called me last week and said she was ready to get rid of this "junk" as she called it lol. She did love the Springfield though and hated to see it go, but I told her I would take good care if it. 

 

I'm planning on keeping one of the Ford's and the Springfield. I'll keep a few engines and maybe a maytag, but the rest is gonna find a new home. There is TONS of Clinton vertical shaft and two stroke stuff. A few briggs, and a few rep's. What doesn't sell will be recycled. It was fun to dig through the stuff and talk about old times.

I’ve never gotten into the Ford GT’s Mike.  We’re they indeed Ford made, or rebranded?  Grandpa has an old Ford 3300 I believe and it runs like a top.  Great machine!

Jacobsen built them for ford so most parts are interchangeable.

What a cool haul. Take good care of them.

Is the Springfield the one with the grass sweeper(??) on the back?

Excellent collection!

 

 

If you have any neat metal gas tanks that would fit under a horse hood from 65 to 77 lemme know...
