ehertzfeld Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 Well seeing I couldn't sell this, I decided I would finish it. I used the 5hp that I got with the chipper, to power it. As soon as the rain goes away, I'll pull it out of the basement, and give it a try. I have a bunch of pieces of the original deck, so Ill used them on a Broadmoor deck to hang off this. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it, but I'll have some fun with it, wile it's here:D Elon
FastPaul Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 Looks great Elon' I saw (WNC Bill Campbell's) Wonder stick at the orange show, Very unique and rare little machine, Good choice to keep it and restore' Nice work :D
PhanDad Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 Looks good, nice work. Looking forward to more pics of it in action. Can you rotate the recoil stater 90 degrees clockwise for a better pull angle? Give you something to do today waiting for the rain to go away. ;)
D-17_Dave Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 Looks good Elon. Wher you gonna mount a right hand lift lever on that one though??lol Bet a mid-mount grader blade would work great on that.
MPH Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 Like Daves idea, a grader blade would look better on there then a deck. Those are kind neat looking little rigs.

Give you something to do today waiting for the rain to go away. ;) It you look closely at the first picture, you can see the recoil behind the cut out in the hood. I rotated it to match the cut out. I can pull it with the hood down. From what the weather man said, I'll be waiting a long time for the rain to stop.:(! Elon

Dave the lever found it's home on my 64 LL, it comes in handy:D Now that you mention it, I did make a small grader for a Broadmoor, that mite be kinda neat. Thanks for the idea.:) Elon
RayS Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 There nice little tractors Elon, my neighbor has a couple of them.
ZippoVarga Posted June 29, 2006 Posted June 29, 2006 Elon, Saw a nice unrestored "Boy Wonder" go on ebay with manuals for around 350 recently. I love the looks of those little guys. Enjoy it!!
ehertzfeld Posted June 29, 2006 Author Posted June 29, 2006 I'm hoping to get it out of the basement this weekend and take a few laps around the house.:D Maybe pop some wheelies:D:D Elon
richp Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 If I can find a motor, I should start rebuilding mine. Elon,what HP is yours? Mine is A few years newer than yours, it has the hoop steering wheel.
