WOW Nice tractor! What size deck does that take? I've got a deck from a 728 Broadmoor,would that work?

Fantastic job Eric!...and very fast.8D:D Couple of questions for you. Do the rear hubs on your 637 have two holes in each where they pin onto the axle? The ones on my 637 do, and I've not seen this on any other model Simplicity. By using the other set of holes, to pin the hubs on, the trac of the rear tires can be changed. Also, what size battery are you using, and would you post pics of the mounting?

Nice looking little tractor you have there! Great job! To those who are thinking about doing a restoration on the smaller tractors this should be an example of how good they can look.

if you are looking for a seat cover there is a guy that has covers on e-bay all the time. i bought one for mine and it look as close to the original as you can get for only $25

Hey that really looks nice...You did a great job.. I think the 728 deck would be too big...The Yeoman only came with a 28" or 32" deck...However some Broadmoors came with a 32" deck but that was mostly the older ones...I belive most all 728's came with a 36" deck and I don't think you have a long enough wheel base to fit the 36" deck under it...

True, tractormike. Every SimpletrACtor, from Sovereign to Serf to Wonderboy, came from the factory looking and performing excellent. Very nice job, wantedinct! It's always nice to see 'em all shined up. Tacey

Until I got my 207 fixed I did'nt think these little tractors could do such a great job. Nice paint on an old paint.

Thanks Eric, that helped a bunch.;) Is the battery charged from an engine altenator or do you use a seperate charger?

Eric Picture file names can not have symbols in them like ! @ # $ % ^ & * The picture you posted above the one with the [img]http://www.simpletractors.com/club2/attach/wantedinct/motor&batt.jpg[/img] icon is caused by putting symbols like & in the picture file name. The reason for the [img]http://www.simpletractors.com/club2/attach/wantedinct/motor&batt.jpg[/img] icon is that the URL of the picture gets changed as in this example which is the true URL of the picture http://www.simpletractors.com/club2/attach/wantedinct/motor&batt.jpg to this which is a false URL http://www.simpletractors.com/club2/attach/wantedinct/motor%20batt.jpg the & sign can not be read by the club house software, because of security reasons. The & sign gets replaced with %20 as in the last URL example. If you click on the first url above you will see your picture. If you click on the second url above you will see what the program sees. The %20 changes the URL and that URL doesn't exist so you get the resultant [img]http://www.simpletractors.com/club2/attach/wantedinct/motor%20batt.jpg [/img]

Very nice job on the Yeoman. My 616 looks like your first picture, I've got it all cleaned up and ready to paint. I've got the 8hp allmost ready, hope it will be done by spring. They are really fun little machines. MikeG
