strokersmoker06 0 #4 Posted April 24, 2011 It is a reserve for the gas tank! The tractor already had the wholes in the hood and the tank, but I cannot find a cap for the resereve part of the tank, I am still looking because that is a pop bottle cap! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

n1defan 47 #6 Posted April 24, 2011 I was wondering why did you change the decals from what it was to what you put on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TT-(Moderator) 1,129 #8 Posted April 24, 2011 The decals that are on the tractor now are correct for 1961 - they're just back too far: The decals that were on it are 1965/66 and are available from several sources - even Toro still had the replacement version (#83-3410) the last time I checked. Here they are on Terry's ("vinylguy52") site: LINK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
strokersmoker06 0 #9 Posted April 24, 2011 So the ones that I put on it are correct, Just a little customized! I figured they put them where ever they wanted as they were building them like they did some other things! Wish I could find a belt guard since this is my 3 yr old sons first tractor!
