Chris

Very tidy.

Like the condom cover for the air filter  

I poured gear oil over mine & rubbed in with a rag. Quite like the look

I have got mine back but not opened it

I think I will only make it one day Kev with one tractor.  I cant expect my other half to sleep on an air bed 6 months pregnant

What day will be the best??? Sunday??

Look out for the heavy rain on Sunday

I cant see any red

The white is Landrover Ivory White

Wheels are powder coated, thats why they have not gone rusty

Restored 6/7 years ago. But rust is coming through the white paint   Will have to repaint at some point

1886 is staying in working clothes

Opps Sorry

Heres my Bolens HT20 Large frame tractor 1974

Heres my 1963 MG40. Drayton Diesel

£2700

Seen some pics. Very tidy

Theres always an Allen scythe at an auction

Plenty of lister Ds to play with

That D200 looks in superb order

Yes Charlie its that model. Dont think the engines correct

 

Will have to find out

Spoke to my mate about his cub today. Hes willing to sell but I think he wants to mutch

The engine is not the original one but is the same as what was there. Non electric start

Did use to have a mower & snow blade but they are long gone

PM me if you want his number & more info

Lucky boy

I want a bench now

Forget this & get on with the honeymoon stuff    

Yes a condor

Am I too late with my answer

Yes Charlie its that model. Dont think the engines correct

Will have to find out

Mate of mine whos local has a cub in his garden. Its old. does not have rear fenders & sprung seat if I remember   

He did want to sell it but wanted a high price which I did not want to pay for a tractor which needs total restoration

It will still be there knowing him

Thats good Chris.

But its the wrong shade of red

Is it an updraught type your after??

Sure I have one

I am in Pulborough

Just looked this machine up.

It was not sold. Had a deck & a digger aguar attachment. That sounded interesting

Thats a tidy tractor for its age Paul

Wonder why its got wrong front wheels??

I look forward to the pictures

Yes I like the weathered look about the old girl. Going to keep this one.

I have had a lot of issues with the engine when it gets hot. After alot of head scratching it turns out it was lacking compression.

So treated it to a new set of piston rings & valves  My good friend Mark came down & we took the engine apart again with his valve seat cutter & we cut new seats & ground the new valves in at the weekend. It now runs better now & will tow the gangs tomorrow & find out.

You can get parts from the US

www.samsbolens.com

Have used Sam for parts for both of my tractors. It can take him days to reply as hes a busy man but will ship all over the world. You will get a import tax though which can sting a bit as I have found out

Its smaller than mine  

I think bolens tractors are great machines & are built well. Most seem to get painted in different colours  

I would have more but already own2 & lack of space etc I cant

Just go & buy it & have fun!!

Hi Andrew,

I have an 1886 Husky Tractor 18hp Hydrostatic drive. The biggest & Best

Built like a tank & will go on for ever now I have brought it back from the dead

Do you own a tractor??

Depends what parts your after?? As Neil says, they do have kohler engines, but not all models
