Retired Wrencher 4,909 #1 Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) this where I am at so far with the 1257.I pick this up in NY in May. what a jewel all original just a clean from the frame up. all is left is a good compound on the paint. I so wanted to do a video but my sound on this computer is not cooperating. I did want to keep it original that is why the car battery with the round post. Enjoy Gary B.

Martin 2,130 #4 Posted August 23, 2014 Gary, that is a very nice looking original there. you are doing right by the tractor by just cleaning it up nicely. would be a shame to loose that original 'character' by restoring it....... beautiful condition! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Molon_Labe 731 #5 Posted August 23, 2014 That is absolutely beautiful. Don't think I'd do anything to it but admire it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Retired Wrencher 4,909 #6 Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) Thanks every 1 for the nice comments. I did not mention that this tractor cam grease fitting caps. I talk to a person that use to be in the business and he said that was a option. If u look at the front axel u can see them. I know this is a small item but if u have never seen these before it stands out. Take care. Gary B.... Edited August 24, 2014 by T1257 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
