Sparky-(Admin) 23,284 #4 Posted January 28, 2012 Did they come with 6x12's on the rear when they were new? I thought they came with 23x8.50's. Either way its a nice lookin ride! Mike........... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,162 #5 Posted January 28, 2012 I thought they came with 23x8.50's. They did - and I see the "console" cover plate is from a '73 12/14/16 automatic too. Hydraulic lift & the front hitch kit is definitely a bonus on a nice survivor. :handgestures-thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Riley088 63 #7 Posted January 28, 2012 I gave it a quick degrease and power wash. Then some steel wool and some motor oil. It works pretty well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sorekiwi 761 #8 Posted January 29, 2012 I see the "console" cover plate is from a '73 12/14/16 automatic too. My 1276 came with one of those too. Riley, Vinylguy does a decal for the coverplate if you want to fix it. Nice tractor!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riley088 63 #9 Posted January 29, 2012 I was just downstairs looking at the tractor. The lights are growing on me. Was there an option for these? They look like they were really installed nicely. Light switch is nicely located on the dash. Any thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
