Off color. Found a family garden tractor

   I was perusing the local lawnmower junkyard while looking for parts for my deutz 916.  I happened across this Farm King 16/44.  It's the same model we had when I was little.  My dad and grandpa went halves buying one new.  I spent a lot of time riding on their laps when I was little.  Well years went by and it got relegated to the corner of the garage when it quit running with carb problems.  I finally succeeded in begging my grandpa to let me fix it.  I messed with it for two or three years to no avail and eventually got tired of fiddling with it and traded it to a buddy for....something that was probably worthless now looking back.  Anyway, I lost track of it after that.  Well after looking over this one I realized it was one and the same.  It had a weld on the front axle I recognized.
My son and I plan on fixing it back up.
