It's amazing haw far these little guys travel! Of course I personally know of 3 that are spread out across the country! Nice little ole round hood! Wheel color says Bolens to me but then the front tires look like the right type.

Nice find Jacob. Looks much better than it did in the CL pictures. I watched that one for weeks. If I'd have had a place for it I'd have bought it weeks ago.

It wasn't that far from you Chris,it was in better condition than the pics showed on craigslist,it has been cared for by someone in life.The guy I bought it from said that if he didn't get it sold he was considering hauling it off for scrap iron sure glade I decided to buy it.

Jacob, You've inspired me. I've decided I will start buying tractors again, regardless of the consequeces. Yes I think that tractor was only about an hour away, in fact I was over that way in the last few weeks. Glad somebody saved it. I'm considering getting some pallet racking so I can fit four or five more in the shed.
