Neat

Looks nice that Nigel what hp is it mate ?

its nine horses, engine that came out was eight horses, and nine horses is more than eight horses so it will pull better cos its got one more horse, i better stop horsing around now

Is it just used as a towing tractor??

its used to pull logs out the woods but i think it needs a lot more weight cos it just spins its wheels

Great engine change, a diesel will make the world of difference.

 

The Bolens tubeframe I use for pulling has two sets of wheel weights on and it will pull a house down before the wheels spin

It's good to see it up and running. The Diesel engine will make a noticeable difference.

I have to say the diesel engine does suit it very well
