Wheel Horse Kid 104 #3 Posted July 12, 2013 Great pic!! I got a real nice '74 B80 with 36" deck that I bought a few months ago that I am planning to do a "refresh" on. Am looking forward to snow blowing the driveway and mowing with it! I have heard that those B80's are real tough little beast! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken B 3,116 #4 Posted July 12, 2013 Great looking tractor. Way back in the day when the B-80's first came out is what I cut my teeth on. Me and a neighborhood kid put so many hrs on that tractor cutting grass for money it ain't even funny. We never had a single problem with it. I'd like ti find a real clean one to add to my herd.

groundhog47 347 #8 Posted July 13, 2013 Very nice machine, a guy down here has one chained to a palm tree with a snow plow, rustin away. On inquiry he said "es antique, no for sale". My summation, not being sarcastic, you have a valuable machine, ain't rusted to pieces, and is clean hard worker...got any palm trees, good tie down place, ha!

papaglide 541 #9 Posted July 13, 2013 I usually chain it up to a pine and cut it loose once every summer! Takes me 6 months just to make it look good for the big day I cut her loose. Cant figger out why! Gotta love those antiques man! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
case442 130 #10 Posted July 13, 2013 The B-80 is looking good Mike. By the way I just got the C-195 back in a trade. Also got an 520-8 and a couple D-250's. Take care Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Wrencher 4,880 #14 Posted July 14, 2013 Mike I have to say that I agree with u 100%. I had a 1974. I still miss this tractor. I kick my self every day for selling it. But I guess u can`t keep them all. Gary B................. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
papaglide 541 #15 Posted July 14, 2013 Those weights look like their doin the job! Mike, the weights make a hell of a difference steering. She's like a little tank now! Now one question about her, what would go where the black plug is by the shifter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hm12460 53 #16 Posted July 15, 2013 Very nice B-80. Yes, they are a very good, hard working machine. I'd love to have another one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
