Here is mine that Ariel got from her great grandfather,hood was broken off like Jess said but is a decent tractor, not to heavy duty but is a good learning tractor for kids cause its simple and low. She moved on to something bigger for plowing but the 382 still gets out on occasion.

Geezer thats a cool photo

here a a couple pics for you

Here are a few pics of Ariel and myself plowing off the first 5 inches of snow from this morning aso we can handle th 6-10 more they are calling for while we plow.

I have an extra blade and have been thinking of doing what Scott C did, my 147 should handle 54" weighs 1500 pounds with me on board and have 2 link chains, I think it will work

I will have to get you a pic but the guy that owns the local ace hardware has a b mack with integral sleeper and a vintage great dane box to match

Geezer i think the answer would be different from each sex

I work for a new car dealer(wont start the brand debate)and have for 25 years and have found that for oil changes the quick places screw up more than most others. If its quick they are not using trained technicians. Most car brands have inexpensive oil change packages available that make it as cheap...

Paul I've always had the best luck with Gibbs on my old hit-n-miss engines and it is atf based

tree limbs do worry me but it is a sound tree that has been kept trimmed up so it should be ok

good idea on the venting but the doors are actually several inches off the ground so it should be ok

On black friday I picked up a new cub/hit-n-miss engine storage shelter from tractor supply. I put it up over the weekend and it will work great. After reading the poists on this subject in the fall I started checking these out and Tractor supply put them on sale at $100 off shelter logic 12x20x8.

Jeff nice deal for that trailer but if you plan on going any distance to plowdays make sure the wheel bearings are well packed and get a couple of spare tires to carry. Seems like those little tires can only stand so much highway heat before they blow out.

I have a stihl 020 dad bought in the 70's and it still cuts good and runs good and has cut its share over the years but i think the big thing is buy it from a dealer not one of the big box stores. I am conviced the quality is sacrificed to have a lower price and they don't offer service. Just my .02

I am like the majority i liked the old way but have come around to this as time has gone on, as for log in i just checked the box log me in each time i visit and i found it easy to keep track of the new stuff by clicking read unread posts, it lines up everything i have not read. keep up the good work

Ben looks like a great time, nice pics, i really like the one on the roof. My engine buddies and I host our own back yard engine show each year and i think these intimate shows are more fun than some of the really huge shows

Vince you're correct on the clutch you have to split the tractor

I bought an old logan four or five years ago because the price was right and it has become indispensable for making your own parts. nice find

I saw the owner start and drive this tractor on sat. morning at Coolspring and in 1st gear it flies but not much torque. A bystander said it seems like a detroit...."it turns fuel into noise"

Scott, the logo looks great, it combines the old and the new

Ken i have had succes by using the broken sharp end of an old ring when an actual cleaner isn't available , but most groove cleaners come as a kit with multiple size cutters and are adjustable to fit alot of piston diameters. Albie

just settled down from a great show near York Pa and other than a very rainy thursday(5") the sun came out friday morning and a good time ensued. A lot of nice cubs from the area including a selection from Butch Bankert. Here are a few pics from the show.

Scott i will pass it along when I see him this coming weekend at Steam-o-rama near York PA. I took these and told him they would be posted and he thought that was great. Just wait till you see his latest cub project when its done.

Had a great time at the Fawn Grove Olde Tyme Days fall gas engine and garden tractor show with steve t. and Butch Bankert. Here are a couple of pics of Butch with the 73 he won at Fort Allen plow day. He did a beautiful restoration on this tractor as usual.

Here are a couple more this is a scale model of a John Deere combine

more from MD steam show

Just settled down fro a great four day show weekend at Arcadia Md where the features were Huber tractors and Hercules engines

Now that's cool

I used to get farm show but the subscription ran out but they always had the neatest ideas for things(should be called 101 uses for old combines and school busses

I am getting a 129 as partial trade for an f-14 i sold. I also went to a sale yesterday and picked up a nice brinly cultivator frame and bucket of parts. the bucket had 15 shanks in it, 13 holders and wedges,and a set of hilling plows like jon bruford was talking about before

This is great I was told by Steve Townsend and am glad to be able to read everyones posts again. I felt like i was going through cub withdraw!
