RedRanger 1,469 #2 Posted March 22, 2015 Looks pretty complete. Too bad the deck is rotten. Need a couple small things....light switch, lighter doesn't look original, rear lift cable, seat looks like its from a later WH or comparable replacement, not a big deal there. Nice ride.

squonk 43,752 #3 Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) Don't see too much wrong. Needs an axle seal. I would redo the lift cable to the rear if you plan on any garden work. Has the wrong light switch but that switch is still available. I wonder if lights were optional? Mine has them. hood latch is gone and hood is torn where it goes.

AMC RULES 37,196 #4 Posted March 22, 2015 Unusual to see them with dash plates survive in that nice condition too. Over all looks really good...a nice score there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 23,139 #5 Posted March 22, 2015 Nice looking machine....to bad someone cut the grill tho. The steering wheel and/or steering shaft look like they may be wrong. All 4 Wheel horse tires is a huge plus in my opinion! I think I see bird poop on the hood......definitely not original . Mike.......... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedRanger 1,469 #6 Posted March 22, 2015 Lights were an option. Somebody had bug eyes on this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sdhdcouple 133 #8 Posted March 22, 2015 So Someone cut that top part of the grill to put headlights in it? is that what I am understanding. Also is that mower deck the correct deck? looks like a green belt guard cover on the top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also is that mower deck the correct deck? looks like a green belt guard cover on the top Looks like it. I was referring to the holes drilled in the sides of the hood as it looks like they had lights bolted there too. OEM lights would have been mounted where the white filler panel is.

Sparky-(Admin) 23,139 #12 Posted March 22, 2015 The snow-blower is for an Attach-a-matic generation tractor and wont hook up without a front attach-a-matic adapter. I don't see the flag for the blower lift. Mike.......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 43,752 #13 Posted March 22, 2015 What does the original steering wheel and shaft look like? Mine was cut and a wheel bolted into it from the top. I hope to find the correct pieces at the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedRanger 1,469 #14 Posted March 22, 2015 I believe it would have had a 2 spoke with the "shield" half way around the center cap. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdhdcouple 133 #15 Posted March 22, 2015 ya we looked in his barns went thru all his stuff, this is all the parts he had. So the grill is basically junk now. dang it. does anyone have a pic of the attachment plate I would need to make the blower work? I am hoping $475 wasn't to much for all of this, now that we have better pictures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky-(Admin) 23,139 #16 Posted March 22, 2015 Even with the few "issues" I think its a good deal for all that you got with it. Its real hard to find a 47 year old tractor that hasn't had someone do a bit of back-yard engineering on. Mike............ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 37,196 #17 Posted March 22, 2015 Most of the stuff you need to make it more originally correct is currently out there on Ebay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 43,752 #19 Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) E bay is a great source. I try to get parts at shows. I've been known to keep certain people "entertained" walking back and forth carrying parts. Edited March 22, 2015 by squonk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am with Mike on this one with the grill and it is 90% there the dash can done over with a new Terry decal. the S/wheel can still be found on E-Bay as for the seat you can sell that one to offset the cost of the orig/ seat. as for the rear end If u can not get the hubs off like the 1257 I pick up last year even with heat. I use Lucas tranny fix and leak stop that did the trick.Shifting is even better now. Also take out that plug on fill hole on left side of tranny and just put in the top peace. You also can find a lift cable on E-Bay. the rest I think will all fall into place. Nice tractor. Enjoy the ride. Gary B.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
