Bolens 1556...home

Recommended Posts

It is a 1556-01 that means it has a metal petrol tank, during the year they made some small changes like a poly-carbonate tank for the 1556-02 and 1556-03 models. The trip was further than I anticipated, by the time we made two extra stops for my co-pilot to look at tractor salvages, it came to about 1125 km round trip. The snow caster was from a smaller model Bolens, but with the weather here in Oklahoma, not a worry, as I am probably going to sell it anyway. It was really the tractor I wanted, I have already acquired the right muffler for it, reversed the rear pull hitch to allow the tiller to raise further, installed a new choke cable that I had for another tractor, changed the oil and air filter. The tractor is 43 years old, only made in 1972 and was the 27th tractor off the line. I also got the original seat, and have much needed new dray link, but for 43 years old this is in amazing shape with the original tires. This is what I collect and want; original well maintained old single cylinder hydros WITH implements. It runs and drive very, very nicely
