Many variations of Ed Roth’s creation... probably one of the most duplicated hot rod cartoon art styles there is... in the states must be? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Machineguy 877 #30 Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) @Stormin I’ve got a ratty patina Suburban myself. The sickle bar is a fun bit of kit! If the “bit of kit” line was cheesy I got it from Ed China on Wheeler Dealers! lol Is that a real term used across the pond? I like it and say it once in a while to get a reaction! Ha! BTW, I really like the black Wheel Horse and I thought about doing something similar on a Massey Ferguson 14 project I have.

Stormin 9,981 #32 Posted September 21, 2018 (edited) Black is beautiful. That Massey, going off the registration plate is a 1970. Edited September 21, 2018 by Stormin 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mows4three 826 #42 Posted October 12, 2018 I wasn't familiar with them either. It's got a 50" deck made out of thicker stamped steel than I've seen on any other tractor in its class. Shaft driven mower deck, hydrostatic drive and hydraulic lift with a three point hitch. Front PTO for powering a snowblower. 18 HP Twin-V Briggs Vanguard engine. Always kept in the barn. Runs like a champ. Too big for my friend who wanted the conveniences of a modern mower with electric assisted power steering. A 1/2 gallon of Crown Reserve brought it home for me. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a 1959 T65 and I have the deck, plow, rototiller, and snowthrower attachments :) I do have the original engine (8hp Kohler) but the PO said it smokes so he put a Tecky in it. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
