| Has anyone put a tool box on a 720 or 620? I would like to find something small enough to maybe fit between the fender and seat to put a couple items in (hitch pin, pliers, etc.). I don't want to put anything on top of the fender or on the side of the tractor. Just wondering. If so, could you post a picture of what you made/found to use. Thanks, Dave |

the B1 garden tractor used a tool box on the back of the seat. I made some reproduction boxes for friends. I have 4 left yet they are 10 3/8 long 3 1/4 high 2 1/4 front to back. If you can find a picture of a B1 with a tool box, you will have an idea how they look. |

I am not good at pictures. if you look for a b1 on a search some will show the box. you can mount it any way that would work for you. |

| Oh, sure. I've been thru there. I'm near Eagle just east of Lincoln. I think that size may fit on the inside of a fender just lower than the seat. How much you asking for them? |

| Yeah, I think I like the size. I'd just like to have one to try fitting on the inside of a fender beside/beneath the seat before committing. I guess it is something on my "wish list"! Thanks for the picture. Dave |

Dave, send me a working drawing and I can make most likely make it. Most likely using 26 ga. sheet metal. Dusty ------------- 917 H, '48 G, '65 D-10 series III "Allis Express" |
