D_Mac 8,613 #1 Posted February 10, 2023 So a couple of weeks ago I went to pick up a Sears tractor that my friend purchased. After we loaded the tractor the owner asked if we wanted some other things he was going to put to the curb. My friend took a pair of rocking chairs and I took this home made watering cart. The man made it to water a small garden he had back on his property. It came with a hose you attach to the valve. I took the hose off for the winter. The price was right but the color is wrong ! Just another thing I have no use for but hate the idea of it being trashed. Last picture is of the Sears my buddy bought. The cart in the background. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not a Tecumseh fan, but they did make a couple with Briggs motors and an Onan powered rig. Someday I’ll find a nice one and bring it home. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D_Mac 8,613 #4 Posted February 10, 2023 Its just a hand cart he modified. Pretty good welder, lousy choice of color when he repainted it. Im going to have to buy some Regal Red this spring and pick up a red ratchet strap. Maybe even pick up some Wheel Horse decals from @Vinylguyto put on the sides of the barrel. Or..... put a JD decal on it and sell it off at an inflated price !! 1 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You ever find an early/mid 70s with the Tecumseh big block, that's the good ones. Likely the best engine techy ever made. 17 hours ago, D_Mac said: home made watering cart. Nice find there Don!

Likely the best engine techy eve Only the good Tecumseh run, they are as hard to find as C-160's. I have a Tecumseh that runs, not going to press my luck to try and find another. That was free and mounted on a Troy-bilt tiller. Edited February 11, 2023 by Lee1977 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
