I’m keeping notes here on our vehicles and equipment.
Inventory
McCormick Deering W6: In good running condition. I want to get new front tires, finish repaint before August ‘09.
Allis Chalmers WC: Runs, need to repair/rebuild/replace carb. Rebuilding hydraulic system, need to buy pipe and hydraulic hoses and get snowplow mounted and functional SOON.
‘88 Voyager: Driving, but needs rear crank seal and all three trans seals (dripping from all, maybe a teaspoon/day?).
‘89 Horizon: Driving; in pretty good shape at present. Need to figure out how to rehang rear bumper, needs new windshield, needs rear crank seal.
‘93 Chevy G20 Gladiator Conversion Van: Now parked for Winter (at least). Needs serious bodywork: rusted thru right rocker, under windows, left rear corner, back doors, side door. Neads rear heater blower motor replaced, needs new front and rear tires, needs suspension work, suspect ball joint (inside of left front tire gone).
‘91 Plymouth Voyager: The head is back from the machine shop and Matt has re-assembled it, almost ready to install it.
‘65 Ford Pickup: Matt has entire interior gutted and doors off, working at replacing missing floors. Have replacement doors and fuel tank and seat and most of the dash. New (used) rims partially stripped, needs tires.
‘77 Catalina: Runs OK, needs fuel tank, fuel pump, new tires, headlights, title and license.
‘83 Horizon: needs new 5 speed transmission, valve cover gasket, front and rear crank seals, front brakes, 4 tires, 4 wheels (wheels were moved to ‘89 Horizon, wheels that came with ‘89 are Ford Focus wheels and don’t fit correctly), and we think the front hub bearings might be bad, although I know they were replaced a 10-15 years ago.
‘89 Caravan Turbo: Needs head pulled and sent to machine shop, rebuild turbo, rebuild front grill and bumper (robbed for ‘88 Voyager). Can be seen in background of photo above and photo below.
‘89 Voyager: Needs engine. Entire interior and front grill, bumper, etc robbed for other vehicle repairs. Side door robbed for ‘88 Voyager. Needs windshield.
‘69 Catalina: needs 455 rebuilt, front crossmember is bent, needs all front suspension, needs Posi rear end rebuilt and (properly) re-hung, needs 5 new wheels and tires, needs interior including floor pan, front windshield; rear window and door are working partially now.
‘70 Ventura II: It’s a rolling shell. Needs title and license and a complete teardown and rebuild from the ground up.
