Minneapolis Moline ZTS Restoration: Part 3

The Minneapolis Moline ZTS doesn't look like much of anything these days! Caleb has it torn down into many pieces, including having the "main" tractor stuff broke down into three pieces: the transmission, the crankshaft block, and the front end! There was quite a bit of work done, and in the words of Caleb it is, "overwhelming and exciting"!

You can find us in all the places (and the podcast too):

Thanks for recording all this, it is very interesting, takes the mystery out of the process.

Nice to have elders to teach and pass on the skills

Good to see that the videographer didn't get in the way too much...
There's definitely a long way to go but I think the crew is up to it. Looking forward to the progress - and glad I'm not paying for it ;)

So how is this project coming? This was a random YouTube suggestion, I watched part 1, 2, and now 3, but then there have been no updates in a year? I hope you didn't give up...

Any luck removing the large crankshaft nut on the flywheel ? Is it left or right hand thread ?

[rickayers]

Don't ask me, I don't think I could tackle that job.
