Hoping for the best for your wife and your entire family.

I used to have a 1650 with lugs on all 4 corners... however,
I was told the "non-traction" front tires should be reversed.
I dunno. I didn't like the way it looked.

Check the compression. Sounds like it could be a leaking head gasket.

Lookin' good Allen.

Welcome.

Speaking of plastic parts... is anyone familiar with a product called Plast-Aid?
Check out this introduction video on youtube.

I've never used it but, it looks pretty amazing.
Can be ordered online and not expensive.

The wheels are there to prevent "scalping" rises of the ground... supposedly.

Like I tell myself... "Just a little bit at a time".

Atta boy!

Can also be ordered from ebay...

How recent are those pics?
If fairly recent, he didn't just take care of it... he babied it!
Since they're photos of snapshots (from film) I'm leaning towards some time ago.

Welcome to the forum Nate. However, she has agreed that when she goes back to work I can get a new tractor, probably a compact with a loader and bucket. There's nothing wrong with that plan but, why wait a couple of years? I've got a buddy on another forum whose wife is working all the overtime she ...

I think that may be the Caution sticker giving instructions on the proper way to jump start
the tractor with cables.
That sticker is on the underside of that cover/pan on my CC's.
No biggee.

Going off topic here with Ford Y blocks but I was not the one who started it

Yeah... I went from Cub Cadets to "Shooting the Breeze".
My bad?

The engine is a 272ci. I'm not sure it was the original engine or not.

I believe FORD used the 292 Y-Block engine in the '55 T-Bird.
With the 4 bbl carb it would have been designated as a 182 HP "Power Pack".

I offered him a used one, all he needs to do is stop over and set up a WiFi in my shop! Plus I trucked some parts back for him from ray, you would think he could find a few minutes....

What... you can't turn-on a router???... it's wireless!!!

Welcome to the forum.
Not to worry... You've got a brand new year to all the "honey do's. done.

Mike, the Southern Cub Cadet Gang was something started by longtime member Jim Steele (jswordy) who lives in Tenn. He had a bunch of these buttons made up and if you attended a show in his area where he was displaying his Cub, he'd give you a button and you would become a member of "the gang". This ...

That's lookin' real nice.
How about I send my 147 to ya for a make-over?

BW Stevenson... "Buck Wheat". I haven't thought of him in years. A bit of trivia. He recorded a song called "Shambala" which did OK but did not burn up the charts. A short while later 3 Dog Night released the song and it went to #1. BW and his co-writer (I forget his name) re-wrote the lyrics to Sha...

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the start of your collection.
You're lucky to have Joe close by for advice on these tractors.
He's a very knowledgeable guy.

Old iron is old iron... I like all colors.
They mounted the Onan Performer reversed of what IH did in the Cub cadets.

Beautiful family... Good lookin' gals too!

I'm very jealous of your shop.

^^^^ Does this mean you're the "George" of this repartee? ^^^^

Doesn't look like it'll take a whole lot of work.
Welcome to the forum.

Looks better'n my beads!
I still have trouble stick welding.

I don't see many smaller limbs, sticks & twigs Scott.
Are you allowed to have a burn pile in your area?

I sure do envy all you guys up north that get to play in the snow when it's freezin' outside... NOT!!!

The leaves have just started to fall from the oaks in my yard.
