speedyleedy 205 #1 Posted October 10, 2012 I recently acquired this from the original owner's son. It had benn sitting in a garage for 15 years. Came with all original literature and has hydraulic lift. Took 15 minutes to get it running. Runs like a top. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whfan74 2,015 #2 Posted October 10, 2012 That is one fine looking machine there Tim! Glad it didn't take much to get her going again! It is amazing how little it takes sometimes to get them to fire right off, even after years of sitting around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brian K WheelHorse 28 #6 Posted October 10, 2012 I love the models with the "detached" head lights. She's a beaut. Now here's the question: leave it original or restore? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 1,021 #7 Posted October 10, 2012 Very Nice!!! You got some of the rarest original options on there (hydro unit, original seat cover, backrest w/padding/cover). I would just clean it up and leave it as it is. It's only original once! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danjmah 71 #8 Posted October 10, 2012 Awesome find! I agree, leave it as is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedyleedy 205 #9 Posted October 10, 2012 I'am thinking i might leave it original ! The last 3 tractor that i've pick up in the last few month's have had nice original seat cover with good back rest on them ! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hammerhead 816 #13 Posted October 11, 2012 Great find Tim! I'd clean it up and oil it down, leave it original is my vote, but I always say that! Keith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
