Maxwell-8

Hello Maxwell- 8 
Welcome to the forum I am interested on your comments about the Gutbrod Tractor on here, this is one of  7 my brother and I own,  I have had my own tractor since i was 14 and have found them fantastic little tractors. 
I use my tractors all the time also use them at Ploughing matches and have never found any weakness in them quite the opposite  fact they seem to be unstoppable are you speaking from  experience or some thing you have read ?   

I am 19 years old and always working on garden tractors. People my age are always spending time with their girlfriend. The other day my parents came asking if I had met any nice girls and if their was a girl I liked. I replied with only this picture:

now its time to see if the engine will spark and bypass  the fuel tap and fuel pump needs cleaned out pipe work full of old crap
That will be the next job to overhaul  the fuel pump  and tap leaks. Sparkplug is sparking now to put a small amount of fuel down plug hole
Yes it offered to fire. I just tied a spare old  fuel tank that was kicking about the workshop connected  up fuel lines and it now running.
That's enough  for today still more to do the next few weekends

Our local event so popped up for a look this morning
 
Not much horticultural but one or two machines of interest...
 
 

I've been making a couple of attachments for the Sears/Roper recently.
 
First was a front tow hitch out of some scrap lying around. May not look pretty, but functual and cheap.
 

 
  Secondly a rack for the rear of it. I did make a tote box for the front to carry my chainsaw etc, but on really rough ground it would hit large bumps or ground out on deep holes. So I decided to make a rack to carry it behind the seat.
  Again made from scrap and an old scrap gate.
 

 
Box trial fitted.

 
 Finally some paint thrown on with a brush.

 
 Later I had an idea. I was bored BTW. A seat was lying on the shelf, so let's fit it to the rack.

 
Not ideal but good for a laugh.

 
Certainly strong but best not pull any wheelies.
