And who could not enjoy this masterpiece by @BOB ELLISON!  This rode on the bed in the camper on the way home!

Yep that's one I made 3 or 4 years ago.

That was a lot or work but I loved trying different things. I sold it at the big show to a young man.

Or sugared, highly caffeinated soda. Best served at a birthday party of a dozen or more seven-year olds!

It was a tire day at the auction!  I found these 18x8.5-10 fronts that match the rears and are still quite massive.

Rylee’s been a busy girl.  Not a ton of tractor time.  But her 875 is sitting in the shop after plow day.  It gets me brainstorming.

 

 

[Pullstart 64,463]

If anyone recalls, I built this exhaust system for Steve, my C-81 back in 2020 or so.  After I removed the engine and sold the roller to @jeremi3210 for pulling, the exhaust has been hanging out back.  It’s no Bud Andrews muffler, but it sounded great on that 8 hp Kohler.  I’d imagine a Briggs 16 twin should be able to breathe through it too!

It may need a little adjustment, based on the idea that this 875 has stirrups and not floor boards, but it is an option.

Oh noooooooo

[Pullhosen’s Pony Express 44]

With the hydro pump and the filter, this surely won’t fit as originally designed, but might be usable for parts.  I have more exhaust headers I can chop for the rest of the pipes too.

[p38js 420]

Kevin, my original idea was to run duals out the back and try to keep the pipes tucked up under the frame,  the way you have them looks pretty sweet! Might have to run fire proof britches

Also. 875 is a short frame. 

 

[Pullstart 64,463]

Rylee likes this pipe idea.  Not having any plans for which machine will go to the Big Show, I was thinking it would be wise to maybe do some work on it when my time allows, and she can help when she’s available.
