HorseWhisperer 243 #1 Posted April 13, 2014 Found a surviving 1075 on Craigslist a couple weeks ago and pounced.The gentleman I purchased it from bought it in 1966.It came with a Snowblower,tiller,snow/dozen blade and a nos deck.It has the factory headlight option as well!It's so hard to believe he used this for 49 years and its still in this condition!He had the motor gone through a few years ago and the starter/generator rebuilt 4 years ago.I said I would never own another hydro but I couldn't pass this gem up!I paid a respectable price of 500 dollars for all and I'm happy to be its caretaker from here on in!The deals are out there,Be patient! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steelman 250 #5 Posted April 13, 2014 That is a sweet deal. You are right, be patient and you will find a good deal. But with a deal like yours, you better move fast. Good luck it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hammerhead 816 #7 Posted April 13, 2014 Nice score and it even has the rare HL5 head light kit on it! Nice pile of attachments too. Some dude on my local Craigslist says he has a 1956 WH but it is actually a 1960. Price is $600 but it has a 1970's Briggs motor on it so it ain't worth nowhere near $600. Seems like CL is a good source for stuff. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HorseWhisperer 243 #12 Posted April 13, 2014 The PO found a NOS deck at an old Toro dealer a few years ago and paid a hefty fee so the deck is like New!It does have the HL-5 accessory with factory wiring and switch.I went there hoping it was junk and didn't want to part with the cash but such was not the case! :)I'm glad I had the cash and couldn't hand it to him quick enough!The tiller was used once,the snowblower a couple times and had nice dry homes in the garage all their life.The overall condition of the tractor is great.Only one problem,He didn't know there was a filter on the tranny!It works well but never had a change,Hope it didn't hurt it!
