stevebo-(Moderator) 8,330 #1 Posted March 10, 2014 I have a guy who wants to trade me my woodstove for his Cub Cadet 1872. It needs new oil line from filter to engine and had a gas leak (probably a hose). Comes with a mower deck. Any thoughts on this machine? Good or bad. I need to know asap... thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grnlark 487 #2 Posted March 10, 2014 Depends what you value the wood stove at. I wouldn't put a price tag more than $500/600 on that tractor running and driving! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebo-(Moderator) 8,330 #3 Posted March 10, 2014 That is what I figured. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baerpath 517 #8 Posted March 11, 2014 If Steve passes I would be interested in it for the frame for a puller. Starting a new build of a 3 cyl Yanmar diesel To wide for a WH frame LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grnlark 487 #9 Posted March 11, 2014 Speaking of pullers, I might be able to get my hands on a running belt driven Harley twin cylinder motor. I dont even care what it goes in or if it moves. I just think it would be cool to have a garden tractor idling like that in your driveway. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bmsgaffer 2,043 #11 Posted March 11, 2014 Speaking of pullers, I might be able to get my hands on a running belt driven Harley twin cylinder motor. I dont even care what it goes in or if it moves. I just think it would be cool to have a garden tractor idling like that in your driveway. Lol That would sound so sweet for about 2 minutes. Running that engine at full tilt for hours on end cutting your grass might get you thrown out of town . Not to mention you'd probably be deaf. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebo-(Moderator) 8,330 #12 Posted March 11, 2014 Chris, Duane has more of a need for it so I am good with you working with him on that tractor. It may cost Duane on some parts at the big show this year tho. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
