Saved it from a scrap pile, hopefully it is salvageable, something in the rearend seems frozen though, motor turns over but havn't gone any deeper. All panels are there and straight, with little rusting other than on the surface. This is all i know for now, will make another post once we decide weather it is salvageable or not.

At the least, we are going to pull the motor and anything we can use for our other tractors. looks like the hydro system is completely dry, and there's a few chewed wires here and there. The gas tank was pretty rusty but i took care of most of that with a special formula. |

digging deeper. bevel gear box is yellow.. hhmm must have been changed at one time. This thing was really neglected too! I was hoping to get it started tonight but i need some battery cable ends and some butt connectors. We're on the fence about this tractor, the end of the carburetor is missing and this happened before on one of our other tractors. Well lost story short, that motor was trashed from running it like that. I still have high hopes for it though, but tomorrow will be the real test |

Update: It drove itself off the trailer! Lots of wiring problems, starter solenoid is bad, burned up wiring, chewed wiring. Though trough all this it started right up without even a a puff of blue smoke and drove off the trailer. |

Ok i got a couple questions i want to get your guys opinion on. Where can i get close to stock looking front tire for this? This has the wide tires and i like them alot more than the skinny ones. What is a good replacement seat? This one is basically just a pan. |
