Re-pictured Wards Squire 10

Lets try it again. Thanks UCD. Drained the old gas replaced the fuel line and took off the carb for cleaning, started up great, no smoke. This tractor even still has the original battery hold down strap and "j" bolt! The sheet metal is good, has a little of the typical rear fender hand stand dismount droop. The steering wheel has been installed backwards (some people think this is the way it should have been). Does not have the original tires. The grille is in good shape and on closer inspection I think it was painted a creme color. The tractor itself is a goldish brown, kind of like the color of the old lawn boy push mowers. The decals are intact on the hood, "Squire 10" in script and has a strip on the hood. I don't know if the tractor had an emblem on the grille? The grille is a 2 piece like the Simplicity, in the upper portion there are 2 sheet metal screws in the center, if anyone has a tractor like this let me know if there was an emblem. I will take several more pictures that show more of the detail (now that I know how to do it). I also got a B-112 recently off ebay and will take pictures of it.

I can't see making a landlord out of it, these things are harder to find. I think I will restore it just like it is.;)

I have a 1963 MW squire that is orange. It had a gold deck on it that must have been from the later 60's. JH PS nice find.
