Forgive me for being so blunt, but if you had time to take pictures, upload them, and then put a post on the forum, you had time to clean off the tag and get the numbers.

well i was kinda bussy as you could see i took them out side and then i went to read the sticker on the motor and there was tape over it so i pealed the tape off and the sticky stuff off the tape was all over the tag so i cant read anything on it so i got to get rubbing alchohol and try to just take the sticky stuff off instead of the paint off the tag so im soorry i dont have all the time in the world

So why don't you look under the dash for the tractor tag?

If I'm seeing things correctly, it might just have "T-1046" stamped in it.

By the way.... you're only 15 years old, right? You have a lot more time than you think.

I don't have an 857 but a 1277.........which it does look like that quite a bit. I am not an expert on these machines but I would have to lean towards what has already been stated. When you get a chance to find the id tag, feel free to post it and we will go from there. Will be tough to see as it sits right under the dash in front of your shifter.

Good luck!

Here's a 1056:

The 1046 is basically the same tractor except that the engine ("leftover" small oil pan K-241 from the 1965 models) was mounted on a riser plate.

Here's yours:

I think TT just identified your tractor as a 1046 and not a 1056. The 1056 has its motor bolted to the frame and the 1046 has its motor bolted to a plate on the frame like yours.

His knowledge about these tractors and the little differences between years is incredible.

How the administrators put up with this is beyond me. B) Instead of sarcastically trying to make a fool out of someone you should try to help them out.

Did you guys read the whole thread? I will admit that TT's first comment seemed a bit crude, but he was trying to get Rustynut to do a bit of investigating on his own. Maybe give us all the info he could find before just giving up and asking.

In the end TT was the only member here who could positively ID the tractor and back it up with facts and pictures which he did after Rustynut did some checking for any available tags.

As a Moderator/Admin I see no issues here.

Sorry if you see it different.
