My 126 from PA

Post by l palma »

I saw this on my way home from my trip to a IH dealer in Honesdale.
A 126 with a creeper and a 38" mower deck.
Funny thing it was across the street from Steve Mitchel's Moms house,heheheheh.
On my way home I stopped at a gas station for some snacks and I met Steve and his family there,he kinda snuck up on me as I was pulling away trying to get out of his territory,heheheh.
Good talking to yah Steve!!!

Lew you dog. Be careful when sneeking into another ones area this time of year. You may get rotten maters thrown at you!

That's a nice find, Lewis! The left over supply of that model is starting to dry up.
Plenty of times conversing at shows somebody will tell me, Oh- there's one of those right over there, when I go over to look for myself it ain't there.
I know of three of them side by side in a bone yard but I ain't tellin :lol:
It looks as though the clutch pivot has tore out on the dash support- that's a pretty straight forward weld repair or the entire unit could be changed out.
The dash support from the far more common 127 should direct interchange, I think.
Not a 800 or 169 but low production numbers for sure :)

Well Ken,
I got it running and driving now,runs without knocks or smoke,I changed out the dash tower from a 106.
Had to fix some wiring and put in a different key switch. I have the air cleaner.I gave it a bath and got rid of the mold.

It is for sale of course without the creeper :lol:
