Docwheelhorse 2,684 #1 Posted January 28, 2018 1968 Rugg super deluxe with Briggs gen start 7... no attachments. Plow bracket on front but blade now m.i.a along with deck. It was drained of gas and put away right decades ago and found in garage in corner under piles of crap. I thought it was just too cool and bought it out of the estate.

But on those sunday afternoons so long ago when dropped off to grandpa and grandmas for the afternoon it was our secret. While not "the one" I picked up the same "tractor" from Matt (grnlrk) and it also sits in the garage just to remind me of summers 35+ yrs ago. Its a Huffy Caprice 32 and yes Huffy bicycle made it... they made riders from 1968 thru 1975 and quit because they werent selling enough Tony Edited January 28, 2018 by Docwheelhorse Added photo 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is still cold at night in Michigan and my C-105 is whining about his "head" being cold...I guess I should flip for a pair since the Mrs. won't let him in by the fire... 2 1 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Docwheelhorse 2,684 #10 Posted January 28, 2018 Get the tractor to tell the Mrs. that he promises no "accidents" on the floor and can he please come in. Or maybe next year he just wont haul the firewood up to the house for the fireplace! Tony 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACman 7,629 #14 Posted January 29, 2018 Not trying to steal your thread here but I like these little tractors from the past. This little guy is for sale in Lansing wish they didn’t want $400 or it’d be in my barn ! 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have had two of them still own the one. The first picture is the one I still have 1973 5hp huffy. The second picture is the one I regretfully sold The solid tires are little back breakers if your driving on any thing other than grass.
