I think that many more parts that we buy come from China! Back in 2001, I restored a Ford 8N and the old Central Tractor from Iowa (New Name, ??) Just about every part in the catalog was Chinese built, Including NEW (Not rebuilt) engines. They were offering new engines (8N) for about $2500. Radiators, No problem! I don't know how they worked, but the Chinese were willing to sell them.
