Picked up another short frame

today. 
my next goal for the collection is to have all the 1967 model year tractors.

 

 

You'd do well to have that 867 in particular as a great worker for yourself in the future.

I don't know who Ben is, but there is some negative stuff on Craig's List. Disgruntled customer. Just throwing that out there. I guess you are always going to get one.

I would suggest short of a negative exchange here on the forum, that should stay on Craigslist. If something happens here, take it up with a moderator.

I guess I'm only saying this to give him a "heads up". I have nothing against the guy. He's a forum member, so I give him that respect.

Finally was able to test out my 1045 clone. Did fantastic! With the tire and weight set up I didn’t slip once. Very pleased with this tractor. Will have a video out soon.

Anyone interested in a 20hp onan block? It’s off a 520 and is seized up. I parted it out down the the block. Just looking to do a little trade for something cheap. Tractor parts, broken chainsaws, $20 something like that lol

Well that is one of those times I would strive to get back to:D  This great site tells me there are  lot of free range horses out there!  Not so much in my area minus the "super rare" 2500 dollar horse. I am more of a buy low and fix everything kinda guy.

That is what most of us think as well. But crazy market today does not help with that. Back in the day you could buy a $200 to $400 tractor all day every day on most models.

@Bens vintage tractors Ben - Not sure who made the cabs for Wheel Horse, but, Original Tractor Cab made them for Simplicity. Suggest calling them to see if you can get the front panel.
