Picked this up last week out of KY. I’ve never been able to find a barn find before. It resided in a open front shed it’s entire life. Original owner tractor purchased new in 1959 with a 2 bottom slat plow and Oxford rear blade. Sheet metal is in excellent condition with no pitting or dents. Grill and shroud are in pristine condition. Missing the left rear running light but I have one in my spare parts box. Rear fender has a small dent down below the top lip. Also some cracks around the 3 mounting holes. Easy repairs. No slop in the peddles and they have most of their grips still there. Not a gear jumper and the PD has great snap into low and hi range. Runs great, no smoke. Tach delete tractor so hours are unknown but I have no doubt this is a low hour tractor. Drawbar has a little bit of wear but not much. Even came with 2 brand new front tires because he said they only hold air for a few days. Needs a new steering wheel and a set of plug wires. I received a new set of plug wires from Steve Saturday and plan to put those on tomorrow. Thanks Steve and JoAnna for the quick turnaround!! ------------- 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 |

It will be a hay rake tractor and small job tractor. My main reason for it is it’s a 1959 3 bar grill(black bar) just like my 1959 D17 diesel. I plan to do a make over at some point after using it for awhile to see if it needs anything besides the obvious steering wheel, running light, and plug wires. For some reason it was missing the right brake rod? Not sure why, but wanna make sure it doesn’t have a brake problem on that side. It may have a pinion seal leak on that side as a saw a few drops of oil from that area. Not a big deal as I went through both sides of my D17 and it’s not a terrible job. I just couldn’t pass this one up even though it was a 16 hr round trip. Factory 12V which is great. ------------- 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 |
