Hammerhead 817 #1 Posted April 24, 2013 2 of my Grandson's came over last weekend and they were wanting to go tractor riding out in the woods. We haven't done it in a long time so I was pumped! It quickly turned into a mud run and my wife had her restored 653 muddy pretty fast! I had my 753 dually and it got a mud bath too. I hadn't got these tractors THAT dirty since, well never! Oh well, they both got a bath afterwards so no harm done, plus it was a blast! My 15 year old Grandson Dylan, took his 1962 Bolens Model 600 through some deep mud right down the middle of the creek! He was all smiles! He had it sliding sideways a few times and he was gunning the engine! He has been doing that since he was 4 years old so he is used to it. I kinda spoiled him and the other 2 also, hehe! Now I have a Granddaughter who is only 2 and has never been on a tractor yet. Papaw can fix that! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 9,985 #5 Posted April 24, 2013 If my grandsons saw those pictures, I reckon they'd be a bit jealous. Only the green out front and a bridal way to drive. Also not enough tractors to go round. Only the C-125 and an 11hp Mountfield of unknown age. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
