Got this in a trading deal that went on for the weekend and involved 3 trips back and fourth.
Sure looks like a barn find,dont it ?
A little quick cleaning,then I took the cover and pad off the broken seat pan on the tractor and put it on an Allis pan that I had laying around and it looks a lot better.
Put a missing solenoid on it and it started right up.
The steering wheel was bent up too so I took a straight on off the shelf and put on it,you can see it in the last picture.
It needs fluid changes,greased and a serious pressure washing but it's in pretty good shape for its age.

Oh it's still very much cruddy. I just cleaned the sheet metal. Under the hood,under the tractor and the wheels are still very much cruddy. You could about scrap it off with a puddy knife. I need to get the pressure washer after it.
 
That's what Alice started life as. I have the rear end/BGB out back if you need something!

I do Kenny. I also got a 710 in that deal that's a good solid tractor but the rearend is bad. I think that might be a little expensive to ship though.:D

Yeah, it's heavy. It is a 6-speed and has the PTO clutch on the BGB.

It's good to see you and your familar screen name here. I have been watching and listening to you around other forums for a lot of years.
Why around the BGB ? Not that any get pressure washed often but I have been washing my Simplicity / A/C stuff since 93 and never hurt a BGB yet. :D;)
