Thanks Manard One more? On this site under simplicity new for 66 it shows the LL with a white top grill and the LL I have came with a top whit grill also,I like the top grill better in black, was there a grill color change in one year to another ? I also just noticed that the dashboard and side panels are black too mine is white?

According to my books the 101 was only made one year 65/66, late 1965 for 1966 model year. the 64/65 9hp landlord also had a black upper grill. the 66/67 landlord 2010/2012 had a white dash and white upper grill. from the looks of your tractor with a white dash and white grill you have a 66/67 white dash landlord 2010/2012.

If I'm not mistaken, the 101 should have a white dash and a white upper grill.

The 101 had the white upper and lower grill.The 9 hp landlord is the only one that had the black dash and black upper grill.

All of the pictures I posted above are from the simplicity 101 brochure and are posted on the simpletrACtors site. But it wouldn't be the first time simplicity used pictures from other tractors from other years in its brochures.

That is one of the two MFG#'s for the Landlord 101. The 101 had 2 MFG#'s 990350 and 990351 I don't know the differences between the two MFG#'s I found out the difference between the 990350 and 990351 The 990351 came from factory with hydraulic lift group. The 990350 had manual lift. Your does have the wrong seat on it.

Sounds to me like you need to go over to the www.simpletractors.com site and do your homework by looking through the contents section..There you will find most all the answers to your questions.That is where UCD got all the sales fliers from..Look though those and it will show the seat..Also check out the gallery section.
