I bought a 318 new in 89. Life got in the way and I had to sell it a year later. Always wanted another. About 3 years ago one of my lawn customers said I could have his 318 with a broken rod for $300. Then I saw a custom made on an early JD 110, with tricycle front, V twin, independent electric brakes. Got the gears turning and decided to turn the 318 into a mini 2010. I had a real 2010 diesel when I was a kid. I'm pulling the Onan and plan on replacing it with a 2 cylinder Wisconsin. The old Wisconsin's have the sound of an old JD model B. Running hydraulic ports to the rear to power my dump trailer. There is a company that makes the square fenders with headlights in them that look like the 2010, and I found adapters to run 24" wheels off a Power King. I started the restoration of the dump trailer before I got the 318. here's how far I've gotten, Joe.
