Swapped most of the working parts over to my good frame. Ready to put back in. The fan switch on the other one was shot, so opened mine up and cleaned it. Also did forensics on the main control. Will put more f that in my build thread later.

So got tractor done. Was all good until i went to close hood. Never thought about that part. Its wider than the hood. Some mods and its done.
Got 1/2 of each motor mount for the 360 done. Tomorrow is transmission mount.
 
Today went to a Ford-only car show at a ford dealership, and there were over 160 cars there.
but, while it was ford only, there was around 70% ford, 29.98% chevy and 0.01% mopar.

The only other really memorable cars there was this z28 camaro that the guy bought new as a drag car only. all the moles were drag miles until the restoration in 2018.

The oil pump on that thing is based on how bumpy the road is. if the road is perfectly smooth, then the engine will have no oil.
crazy.

News is reporting new Covid numbers in Viet Nam is closing everything down???
There are flare ups, mostly north in Hanoi. Only 40 cases or so in Saigon which is also north but only 120 k from here. No cases in Vinh Long, where I'm at. But yes, if they see flare ups, they will shut things down. They are very cautious here. And rightfully so.

Franklin’s were also air-cooled. Big fan in the front of most models.
