You can't fool me Mark. It is obvious to everyone that Ewan is bump starting you from the rear. Furthermore I believe these were taken at the same time you were stuck in the ditch!
I may be wrong, but compared to you guys over there in the States, we don't have the range of quality tyres for garden tractors readily available over here.
I can't wait to get the tri ribs on my Bolens 1254 as I got a set of Agri tyres on the rear. As you say Alain, I will be hoping to use the 1254 to plough and till the soil hence the tyre set up.
A fantastic video and good filming techniques too. We had blue skies today as well for a change. Your WH driving along the saturated ground was impressive.
Be good to see more on Ewan's CC as well.
The flat back tiller is a heavy beast to move around. I am hoping to get one off Chris next year if it all goes to plan. I nearly bought a H16 earlier this year but passed on it.
Hope you get the third tractor, the Bolens 1476.
The last photo look like a prison compound for tractors what with the wire fencing.....
The Bolens look to be in good order. The H16 is a very popular model for grass cutting. The 3 point linkage on the Snapper looks to be very hefty.
The details were photographed on the eBay listing. I have pinned the search engine from Wisconsin for you Chris to see what year your 850 is.

I have now confirmed the serial # on the Wisconsin engine and the engine was built in January 1968 presumably making my 850 a '68 model. Great to have that resource from Wisconsin Engine Site.
