As you can see, by the color of the tire rim and hood, I changed my mind on the color. I hate to take it to the field now!

That is one nice looking B! I have a 1950 that looks identical (except no sickle mower) that needs that kind of attention ....! My steering drag link is bent like yours, only not as much - the previous owner(s) apparently used it for a step regularly, and it's not hard to bend those things. Getting it bent back, now, that's a challenge! And my front end is bent up where someone apparently liked pushing things with the front end for many years - go figure.

Here's the question - where did you buy your seat? My 1949 B came with an uncomfortable brown bench seat that sits too high - I need one like yours (my 1950 has one just like it and it sits nicely).

Bryan, I had my seat done by an apolsterer for $65.00. I see them for sale at value=built tractor and other parts web sites. I thought the drag link was stock, because the tractor steers fine.

Sweet. THe thumbnails look red but I see it is the dark orange. Mine's more yellow than yours (plus it's only half done).

Was the steering link always bent like that? Mine runs straight from the box to the spindle arm - I've seen several with various degrees of "bend" but yours is one of the more curved ones.

Also, are ths engine side weights original? I've only ever seen one set before and they were more rounded.

I have had the tractor for about 8 years, and everything is original as far as I know.

I have tried every which way to post, but no luck. They posted OK on the other site. I will have to work on it tonight.

Thanks Dick! That's what I like about the AC people, if we are computer challenged, someone will help. I have posted here before, and did not have a problem on the other site. I tried putting the URL address in both boxes, what did I do wrong? Ken/Wa

Your host does not support the Optional Image URL and you forgot to type in a Link Title such as album, or pix, or any other thing you wish to call it. I picked it up by right clicking on your little window with the x and clicked on properties then copied and pasted the URL into my browser. I took a look to see if it were safe and then copied the URL into the Optional Link URL box and then typed album into the Link Title.

WOW!!! You've done a nice job!! Really looks nice!
Hope someday to do the same with my C. Where about's are you in the country? We're in Southwest Michigan. Just moving there from Houston onto almost 10 acres of heaven!

Anyway.....really nice job!! Looks really good! How does the sickle bar mower work? I'm looking for a good used one myself, either a mounted one or a pull-behind such as we use to have....a New Idea.

Have a great day.

Dave and Nancey

Located in Auburn Wa, with a place over in Forks that I keep the brush down a couple of times a year. Also adopted a place in Snoqualmie, Wa that is about 20 miles from Auburn that I keep my tractors at and maintain for a lady. She just buys me gas and a part once in awhile. The sickle mower works great, especially since Rod/NH e-mailed me the instruction manual. I have a rotory cutter on my 8n, but love to run the sickle bar. Nice for going under the fence. I grew up on a dairy farm in Wapato Wa, so it brings back fond old memories of cutting alfalfa. It relaxes me running my little tractors. Sometimes I would not mind being a hired hand on someones farm, if I had a place to live, a little money, and could bring my little B. Maybe bring my girl friend too. but that is not a deal breaker. Would have to be a pretty farm though. No rock patches for this guy! Ken/Wa
