fishnwiz Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 Barber / Jacobsen Mower, foot pedal hydrostatic drive cast iron front axle and rear diff, heavy-duty mower, 44" cut, cast iron block Kohler single cylinder motor. Lights work, Anyone familar with this tractor?
B10Dave Posted June 10, 2019 Posted June 10, 2019 Looks like the Ford version built by Jacobson with the hood modified by someone named Barber.
MARK (LI) Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 H. Barber & Son is a company in Connecticut that makes the "Surf rake"...been around since the '60s..possible connection...do you think that is the original color?

Doubt it as lotsa over spray on engine. Maybe was owned by someone named Barber as Dave suggested. Looks to be a kit tractor of some sort kinda like a Struck ? Edited June 11, 2019 by fishnwiz
Chris727 Posted June 14, 2019 Posted June 14, 2019 Its not a kit. It is a Jacobsen-built tractor, just with a modified hood. The engine sumps were welded to the frame tubes in these. 1 1
