This great little piece of history was listed locally by a John Deere collector who has Deere big and small everywhere.
He had had it for several years thinking that he was going to do something with it but never had.
It was listed cheap and I went and snagged it.
I mainly went and got it for its rear wheels and spacers.
It is a solid tractor and the engine is free. The tractor is normally right up my alley to save and I strongly considered it after I picked it up.
In the end I did as I originally intended.
I took the rear wheels,tires and ,spacers and replaced them with a single pair of turfs.
Then I traded it to a friend for Simplicity 725 stuff.
This tractor needs a lot of TLC and it would be too far down my list and I just don't have a good place to store out of the weather. It already has to much weather damage from the last several years sitting in the weather in a damp spot.
