Starting restoration of Autopatrol 7,6D1

Don Kinney donated the Autopatrol 7 to our museum last fall. Brought it in under cover and started to tear down the engine. Lower and cylinders look great, but all the cooling system had huge chunks of rust flakes. (That ruined our day). The manifolds are shot and on the hunt for a nice set. Several cans on Knocker Loose and almost everything else freed up.

We've also restored another Autopatrol 7, 6D35, we also restored a Autopatrol 9.

That makes four concurrent ongoing restoration projects: Holt 75, Autopatrol 11, Case 12 horse Sweep and now this.

Scott,
Where is the museum located? We go through Missoula every summer to visit my son in Kalispell.

Looks like some of the parts have seen better days so hope you can find what you need.:smile:

We have a Steam Powered sawmill and lots of old equipment. Swing by as you go through town. Call me and if I'm around I'll give you a tour.
