WHC-125 4 #1 Posted September 13, 2010 Well today I ended up getting rid of my B-80 I had for a 1990 312-8 with a 37 inch side discharge deck and a 1967 1257 with a 42 inch side discharge deck. Both machines fire right up and run really good. The 312 has very low hours and wasnt used much and the 1257 I might end up restoring or using it how it is. I also ended up getting a set of front and rear wheel weights and quick attaches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Docwheelhorse 2,561 #5 Posted September 13, 2010 Nice Score.... whats up with the solid cover over the air intake on the 1257? You can't run it like that--it will cook for sure!! Tony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daemon2525 5 #9 Posted September 13, 2010 That is not a 1257. A 1257 would have a 3 speed manual transmission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coadster32 793 #10 Posted September 13, 2010 Nice pickup man! They look really awesome. That B-80 you had was nice too. I agree with Tony, open up that cover...definatly. 1277..Electro (Hood looks like a 68, but w/o the light bucket.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,273 #11 Posted September 13, 2010 Nice score Chris...what is the black bracket on the back of the first horse? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dcrage 621 #12 Posted September 13, 2010 Steve That is the bracket to hold the plastic cover and mount for the dual bags for the grass and leaf bagger system Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHC-125 4 #13 Posted September 13, 2010 Thanks everyone! And yeah Tony I took that off already and I am looking for another one. Also, those are the bagger mounts for the 312 but sadly I didnt get the bagger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HankB 16 #19 Posted September 16, 2010 Nice! I just picked up a 312-8 this very morning. Mine must be older as it has the K301 vs. the magnum. It has a lot more rust and might need battery and some assorted minor repairs, but it still looks like a great tractor! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHC-125 4 #20 Posted September 16, 2010 Thanks Mike. And congrats Hank with your new horse I hope you have fun with it. And it dont matter if its rusty and rotted away or a shined up show piece as long as its a horse! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
