Got her cleaned up and running

[bonedaddy 0]

I posted a week or so ago in th introduction section about a 1 owner 1966 1076 and tiller I found in a barn. This thing is clean from top to bottom.....I don't think there has ever been a leak anywhere on it. Finally got her cleaned up and running. Just needed a carb float and battery. Runs like a champ.

Thanks for the compliments guys. Now i just have to figure out what I want to do with it. I currently am in an apartment and have no real use for it so I thought about stripping her down and painting it up for fun....or just letting her sit as is and finding a deck for it once I have a yard and using it for a worker. I'm definitely gonna get the correct looking woodgrain decals for the hood. The guy I got it from said his grandfather didn't like them and swithched them when the new styles came out.

The lights also need to be wired...looks like someone started and didn't finish....are those wheel horse lights??? Look like they are off a small farmall to me.

Nice tractor.

It's yours, so you can do anything you want to it but if it looks as nice in person as it does in the photo I encourage you to leave it original and not repaint it. These things aren't Duesenbergs, but they are only original once.

Just my two cents,

Steve

I encourage you to leave it original and not repaint it.

Someone already beat him to it...... well, at least some of it.
