TT-(Moderator) 1,129 #1 Posted December 28, 2010 I caught a glimpse of what I think was a 702 with a hydro transaxle (I think it was an Eaton) in a picture someone had posted here on RedSquare. I knew an old feller who converted a '67 Lawn Ranger, but this is the first "big" tractor I have seen and it looked . Who has the picture(s) - and would you please post it/them again? (I can't find it now.) If anyone has any information as to whose it was, etc., that would be great too. How / why was it not posted all over this forum? (and sorry for forgetting about it for so long ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gene_S 93 #2 Posted December 28, 2010 TT there was a guy at Mentone this year with a 702 (I believe a 702) with a hydro. He was from somewhere in Ohio and I don't have any pictures... Very nice job done on it to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jusjeepn 59 #3 Posted December 28, 2010 Pretty sure I saw that one at Portland also. He had it labled as a 772. Very extensive mods but it looked great. I'm thinking it was a Eaton hydro also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brrly1 1,146 #4 Posted December 28, 2010 Yes sir, I believe of all things his name is Terry. I see him at all the local shows like Mentone, Portland, Wapokenta. I will do what I can and dig up his card to see if I could contact him. I believe you guys are correct on the hydro. It is a really sharp tractor. He is from Ohio. See Ya, Bye Burly :ychain: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jusjeepn 59 #7 Posted December 29, 2010 Hey TT, He was set up right beside Henry @ Portland and they seemed to buddy's. You might contact Henry! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brrly1 1,146 #8 Posted December 29, 2010 Pat, I contacted Terry this morning after you guys made your posts. He is from Greenville, Ohio. I normally talk with him at the shows. He said he was going to dig around to see if he had a picture, told me he would email if he did. If someone wants his # email me at brrly1@yahoo.com I will post it if I receive it. See Ya, Bye Burly :ychain: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wingrider 21 #11 Posted December 29, 2010 I talked to him also in Portland and at Mentone too, I have his 2 business cards with info on them, let me know. If you talk to him ask him what the name of his business is called I got a big laugh out of it. Wingrider Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redhorse47 0 #12 Posted January 6, 2011 Hey, guys. Didn't know the 772 Hydro was a topic 'til Burly called me. I am not very computer chatty normally. Not stuck-up, just lazy. Appreciate all the nice comments,though. Unfortunately, I am also lazy when it comes to taking pictures. The tractors are crammed into winter storage now so probably won't get any before spring. That is a nice post from PA show if you could photoshop those two ugly dudes out. Thanks. Terry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,129 #13 Posted January 6, 2011 :ROTF: We can always use another Terry! I'd like to see / hear more about your 772 whenever you are able. I got your # from Burly and have been meaning to give you a call. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redhorse47 0 #14 Posted January 6, 2011 Sure, Gimme a call. Actually, the tractor is not complete. I still have to figure out how to add the hydraulic lift and get a better looking exhaust setup, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sorekiwi 761 #15 Posted January 6, 2011 Hi Terry, Very nice tractor, and I love the idea for a roundhood hydro! Would love to hear what was involved in the build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jb4249 131 #17 Posted January 6, 2011 Terry, It is a nice looking ride. Maybe I'll see it live this summer. I had a very good friend that lived in Greenville, Bob Ryan. He passed a few years ago but a great guy. jb4249 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brrly1 1,146 #18 Posted January 6, 2011 Terry, it is good to see you here. Welcome to Red Square. Like I said there is a bunch of knowledge here. Some really sweet tractors. Really Great People.
