50 TO20 #17683

This is a 400 dollar tractor. Non running D.O.A. Nothing special but complete.Still has the 6 volt system. Last used about 8 years ago when the steering gears locked. Was then parked and replaced by the TO30 that I now own.
They bought this in the 70's and it was a FARM WORKING TRACTOR . Motor was barely stuck,atf fluid to the rescue.

Only spun the motor a very little bit by hand, hate to dry start these after sitting so long. Needs to be primed,I'm sure the bearings would appreciate it.
A few parts and TLC hopefully will put a little fire back in the wires.

Compression test is definitely first step, have my manuals to keep me from spinning in circles.

As long as your not bored. If you were a bit closer, you could come play with my 8N that needs the steering column and left axle trumpet
replaced.

Not my day in the clouds. Pic won't post. Wrong ones lol.

Just gotta give the knee some time and patience, had a ACL on knee bout 25 years ago, now in stage 3 of the C.O.P.D. ride. Just imagine Darth Vader walking around with some wrenches.



You in Oregon?

Darth Vader with wrenches. I like that. I am north of Hillsboro, Oregon gimping along on a 20 acre section the wife's parents picked up
back in the 60's for cheap. Currently we have federal land on two sides (BLM) and Weyerhauser lumber company on the other two sides, all
busy growing timber. Living in the middle of the forest is a bit nervous about 3 months out of the year. Closest human is about 1/4 mile
with the next one about 1/2 mile. Makes for fun times when the dogs run off with a few thou acres of trees they can run off into. Top 3
acres fenced in and in need of repair after the knee will allow me to walk, meanwhile the dogs go out separately and then they don't run
off. We have now met 7 distant neighbors. I have a nasty feeling this right knee is going to be needing "Manipulation" to get it freed up
and moving.
My projects should be dwindling down this summer one way or another. I have a feeling "another" is going to be the best option. Think I
will wait for the drier days to arrive next. . . May and get things moving by then, perhaps sooner, don't bet on it. I got the 61 year old
left knee done last Dec 23rd and this one just got done a month ago today. Stomp the left and drag the right. . . .
