    If we are talking pennies... I can make it 3000 . 
    Just got to hope they fit... may have to remove the tray under the seat to stop rubbing!

    Little bit smokey at times, but I can investigate that. 
    Yes he loves it and it doesn't bother him in the slightest. 
    Looking forward to sorting the wheels Wednesday and then showing Saturday.  Decided on the fordingbridge summer festival. A bit more relaxed with the new baby and only 5 mins away.

    madmatt01 reacted to Triumph66 in Bolens 600   
    At long last the 600 is on it way from the USA to the UK. Dave, aka Old Buzzard, posted me the original data tag which I got yesterday.
     
    All I need now is the actual tractor to put it on.  Just hope OB not going to send me bits and pieces of the 600 as retribution for keeping it at his place for too long....

    Owner contacted me today... he has found some paper work for the bolens and is sending it down. I think it's just a manual as he said he had a friend in America who sent him one across but who know what goodies may turn up

    Drain the transmission and give it a clean and refill with new oil. Apparently a certain amount of whining is the norm. Use API GL1 oil for the tranny due to the yellow metals in the transmission.

    The photo brings back memories of my two lads; the eldest just turned 16 and the youngest is coming up to 14. Time flies I can tell you!

    Congratulations Matt and Mrs Matt.  Now the fun begins.   Wifey and I have a 10 month old grand daughter who we often baby sit.  Crawls in top gear / high ratio and trying to stand.  Great fun.
