| That is real. It doesn't appear to be original engine (Triad 18, looks like a Command Kohler in picture. Command is better engine, but not original. Tractor appears to be in decent shape as far as paint, decals, and sheet metal from what I can see. Is that price per tractor, or all three, and what do the others look like? |

Kinda looks homemade,think the originals had chrome wheels and the TH engine this has neither so at the most all you'd is the paint job. |

I have one of these too. That is not homemade and these tractors are really fairly common and would not be worth going to so much trouble to try to make a clone. The rims could be dirty or maybe were robbed for use on another machine. The front bumper is also missing but it has the correct gray seat with armrests, small chrome lights with eyebrows, chrome rear light, and the serial decal on the side of the dash. Those gray seats are not common, I couldn't find one for mine and had to settle for a black seat. I repowered mine with a command also. I did keep my chrome side pipe installed even though its not functional with the Command exhaust system. ------------- 10 various B-series garden tractors, AC Homesteader8, 416 hydro,710 gt, 914, 916H, 917H, 920D, and many misc attachments |
