OK, 1942 R2. Bought in April, re did magnito, cleaned air cleaner, sediment bowl, repaired lower radiator drain, still a leak at the lower fitting. Did not do anything to carb.(yet). Have generator to be installed later. Just wanted to get it under a roof for winter.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5bgYen3QR4 R2 starts for first time 2022https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVbmLLQKWmk R2 drives to shed and park

Way to go, John! I’ll have to hand crank mine. Looks like I might have a sore arm when/if I finally get it started.

Thats a good looking tractor. Good job on the rescue and start and being able to move under its own steam
