Hello all, I'm new to the Forum although i have been reading ur posts for quite some time.
Anyway I recently picked up this track rig , previous owner had no info, just glad to see it leave there property.
All I know is the obvious, which is probably a 170 Ford -6 , possibly a Fordomatic 2 speed auto tranny and the brake drums also have Ford stamped in them.
My preliminary thoughts are to do , a {From the ground up} rebuild.
At this point my biggest concern is the front drive sprockets ,they are totally shot and seem to be of slightly different design from left to right , does anyone know about getting these rebuild, or replaced with new. Is this rig even worth it ? The tires all 8 , have been previously foamed which was a surprise.
The tracks seem to be in good condition, some of the tire guides on the inside are bent or missing but not a issue at this point, the belting is good . I've spent a fair amount of time trying to find info , although this rig is similar to others I've seen , have not seen this particular rig anywhere . I welcome all ideas
