McCormick Deering Wheel Horse

[KC9KAS 4,745]

My brother-in-law is into the old single cylinder hit & miss engines.

He recently mounted a 1 1/2 HP McComick Deering on some type of Wheel Horse. It turned out pretty good, but the ground speed is a little slow. Due to the engine rotating the opposite direction, he had to add a "jack-shaft" to the tractor. By changing pulleys he can change the speed.

Here are a few pictures.

That is a neat tractor. Any possibility of uploading a short action video too?

Thats Cool, but he cut up the hood and used it for a belt guard! That's criminal!

I told him that someone would feel this way!

Thats pretty cool. Here is a picture of my 854 with a 1930 fairbanks morse stationary 1/2 horse. I bought this the way it is so don't blame me for the green paint. Jake

Ouch that poor 8 speed with no clutch

pretty cool though

[CasualObserver 3,411]

He's got a clutch...it's a hand clutch...black handle with his left hand. You can hear the sheet metal rattle when he disengages it.

Wow I didn't notice that at first. But cool idea though.
