    What Artifacts/Treasures Have You Found Excavating

    In 2000, the youngest Mastodon so far on the planet was discovered in a homeowners pond in Hyde Park, NY. The entire skeleton was there minus the skull.

    FORD 268 DIESEL

    2 sided question: 1. Looking for a GOOD or rebuilt Ford 268 c.i. diesel engine for my Royer 365 topsoil plant. 2. Has anyone retrofitted a JD 4 banger to the Ford " transmission"? Kubota has a kit for their engine but I'm a Deere guy.

    Tracks are at app. 90% free pivoting now, getting better every time I use old Johnny now. My waste oil brew did the trick. I officially entered old Johnny into the fleet as my new topsoil/compost screening/mixing/loading rig.

    Engine runs like a Deere. Hats off to O&C. Never got involved with tearing into a pump, that's why there's experts out there.Hopefully, the clutch and the left steering clutch just need adjusting, they're both not right.
