Great work! That is one sharp 720. I always thought those lawn tractors would make a great One-Ninety XT minnie-me. Maybe someone has already done it? A set of smaller One-Ninety series 3 decals would also look good on it.

Really nice. If it ever gets scratched, look at it as an opportunity to work on it again. Wow the fun! They sure did style it like the 100's. Drop down axles like the 170's thru 185's, flip up hood like the 160. They were just about 100% American made?

| The seat is aftermarket. I painted it cream. It looks a lot like the originals but the back is taller. The tractor goes back to it's owner tomorrow. Mower deck and blade are next. |

The owner has a better than new 720 again. Came out great as usual Rich!! I would think the higher back on the seat is a plus! I put the same seat on my 620. The OEM seat doesn't have much back support... Steve@B&B ------------- 39'RC, 43'WC, 48'B, 49'G, 50'WF, 65 Big 10, 67'B-110, 75'716H, 2-620's, & a Motorhead wife |

| The seat was on the tractor and was good enough to reuse so I'm not sure. It looks very much like the universal ones at tractor supply or rural king |

My guess would be Maple Hunter decals in Texas. They have great decal sets, that’s where I got mine for my 720. ------------- 1968 B-208, 1976 720 (2 of them)Danco brush hog, single bottom plow,52" snow thrower, belly mower,rear tine tiller, rear blade, front blade, 57"sickle bar,1983 917 hydro, 1968 7hp sno-bee, 1968 190XTD |
