B11a = 11 feb 1957

F18v = 18 may 1954

This tractor looks like a ASP

[jamie]

Yeah the second was a 6 cylinder. And first is a power major. But has no dash panel etc. Like it should soo the 6 cylinder a asp sooo not a proper fordson.

[Dandy Dave]

So you have a Fordson Major Diesel with a transplanted engine out of a Power Major. Your gages should be low in the 1957 parts of the tractor. Yuppy, an ASP Tractor. Dandy Dave!

[jamie]

Is that bad having an asp tractor lol.

[fnoller]

Is that bad having an asp tractor lol.

No but when you have to replace parts, you have to know what year the part belong to

[jamie]

So how come my power major has no dash or gauges and the 6 cylinder one has got dash and gauges lol this is head work only wana restore the power major and have lights on it can i still do this

[Dandy Dave]

If the rest of the parts on the 6 Cylinder tractor are Power Major, your best option would be to take take the Power major Engine out of the Fordson Major Diesel and swap it with the 6 Cylinder engine. Does the 6 Cylinder tractor have a differential lock and disk brakes? Or does it have drum brakes like the 1957 tractor? The best thing you can do now is to learn how to post photos. Or get one of your friends that knows how to help you post some. Dandy Dave!
