I started this project a couple of years ago and no longer have the time for it. The diesel version of the UB is rare and extremely desired by collectors today. This tractor was sandblasted and given 2 coats of primer and paint. The radiator core was replaced by a local radiator shop. When I bought the tractor it ran very nicely. Valves have been adjusted by an experienced diesel mechanic. The fuel pump was gone thru and serviced by a very experienced diesel shop. Rear tires have 80 to 90 tread left on them. Front tires are new. Tractor has a new seat, steering wheel, fan belt, lots of new bolts, etc. The generator and starter were both rebuilt by macs electric who has been in business for over 60 years. Tractor is a 12 volt system. Tractor does not have a hood or the front grill. Fuel tank is in excellent condition which is hard to find these days. Fuel injectors have also been checked by the same diesel shop that rebuilt the pump. The rear end has brand new oil in it. A owners manual and a shop service manual will also be included. The tractor has a 284 cubic inch 4 cylinder diesel and is strong! 5 speed transmission, live pto, and foot clutch. This will make someone a great project tractor.
