Lincoln SAE 200

The farm has an old Lincoln welder with a seized continental gasoline engine and I have that Kubota V2203 diesel left over from the disastrous Sato tractor project which will never be completed because it needs the Kubota V2203 indirect diesel.

I've had the Simplicity 9020 out blowing snow twice this year and I'm very pleased with its performance, also purchased an identical tractor branded Allis Chalmers 720 with a front end loader with a blown hydro-static drive. And that is another story that gets a thread of its own.

Rob is donating the welder and I'm doing the engine swap, I'll have the use of the welder not that I have a whole lot of projects that my buzz box won't handle. It's a cool way to give my gratitude for the trust they have in me using their fully equipped heated shop any time day or night.

My future planned projects.

Build a band-saw mill using one of the Toro diesel engines.
Build another trailer, to haul my tractor to antique farm shows.
Install one of the Toro smaller diesel onto the compressor Rob gave me to use for sandblasting.

As the hydro-static project unfolds, I'll continue updates on the Satoh S650G thread.

The Satoh as I've earlier stated was a project based on misinformation gathered from another forum. From which another member is rebuilding the same tractor keeping it stock with the Mazda industrial gasoline engine. Between him and a few others in need, I've recouped my original tractor purchase.

I've offered the Satoh on craigslist and a few other sites several times with out any interest, so It's off to the landfill.

Had the Kubota V2203 up for sale a few times, had some interest but no one wants to travel the distance and I've had enough road trips for this year sourcing parts for the large frame garden tractors. I have all the parts needed.

If all the parts can be found for the Lincoln this project will move forward and will post updates on this thread as they happen.
