Ahhhhh Chevy, I love working on all engines but the chevy is closest to my heart. At 8 years old I tried to clean the body on my paws 1961 Silver Hawk with a dry rag, Paw caught me and blew a fuse, he felt bad afterwards and explaining why you dont use a dry rag on candy apple orange paint, and said if you like to help with the cars then lets get started, so he baught a used 283 smb chevy. And instructed me to on how to rebuild it. We installed it into a 66 malibu convertable. Last i heard it was still running and on the road near Brockville Ontario. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 16,942 #1755 Posted December 15, 2019 Any Xi that wants to just jump in, can just jump on in. 👍 I’d add to my numbers too if that came along. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 46,742 #1756 Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) Nice Tom .. an Xi came up around here on CL awhile back but need one like another five holes in the head! Couple more pics of that 854 and yes it certainly have a story to tell. At one time you can tell someone loved this tractor. It hasn't been hacked on real bad in a mechanical nature but the paint job certainly has character! Pin strips and all. I duuno maybe the guy was a blackhood fan too! It runs and drives nice but has real bad axle needle bearings in the tranny which is no big deal. I eventually would just like to do Mike's @prondzy mechanical resto but leave the paint alone. Maybe clear coat or somethin. I orginally scored this with a 753 that Dan @Achto now has and a '67 LR that Denny @dclarke took home at the Portage show.

Lane Ranger 10,494 #1772 Posted January 26, 2020 Went to West Virginia today (2nd time in this month) to pick up two round hoods that have been housed for five years in a shed! 702 and 753 ! Both need some work but good 7 hp motors and extra parts to replace those missing! I want to thank Earl Howell for saving these and selling to me. 702 has a unique cast muffler I have never seen before on 702. I have new front wheels and tires for the 702. I picked up replacement original steering wheel and gas tank. 1 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
