nigel reacted to bowtiebutler956 in I was followed home by a Case 444!
It Lives Again!!! It runs fantastic, with no smoke at all. The old Kohler is very strong, and the tractor feels great. After installing the tiller, (or rotovator I think most of you call them), I discovered this tractor is going to need some front weights really bad! The front end comes up very easy. I'm going to build a weight bracket in the front to carry some suitcase weights. I'll try, and get a video up tomorrow.

Hi all,
Picked up this little beauty today, it's pretty much untouched and all original, the guy hadn't used it in ages and wanted to get rid of it so I bought it. Brought her home and after a little help with some petrol down the plug she fired away first pull. The drive works as does the scythe. She just needs a good steam cleaning, air filter assembly, new throttle cable and a new cork on the fuel tap, but other than that shes in great orignal condition. For now I'm just going to keep her in her working clothes I think.
The scythe takes about 30 seconds to remove or install, it's very simple!!

Well, I got the rest of this beast painted today! Got all the sand colored parts painted today, or actually the correct Case name for this color is Desert Sunset. I managed to get all these parts painted right before it started raining. The paint turned out pretty well, but it wouldn't be one of my paint jobs if something didn't land in my paint! You'll notice in one of the pics, there is a small green leaf in the paint on my hood. I decided not to mess with it today, as I usually just make things worse when I try to remove things when the paint is still wet. Anyway, here are a few pics. Thanks

had some time spare today and it being so nice I had a bit of Horse-play. got most of the tractor together now, I forgot how many parts there are.
the chap I got it from really stripped it even took the valves out of the tyres. I had some track-rods in stock so fitted them and will keep the stainless ones for a project. here's a couple of todays progress.

nigel reacted to the showman in The Trachorse Story And Build
This project was something I had in my head for a while. Being a lover of Wheelhorse's and tracked vehicles having driven diggers and alike for years, I looked at a few MG's but didn't like the metal tracks
One day a friend gave me a Wheelhorse A 90, it came from a school and had a seized engine and had been partly dismantled to stop the children playing with it, this started me thinking, all I had to do was find something on rubber tracks, narrow enough to go through a garden gate and have forward and reverse gears rather than hydromatic.
