mooman3121 58 #1 Posted July 25, 2019 Greetings all! my name is Earl and I am a new member from new york- I grew up operating a 1966 606 wheel horse mowing the lawn and plowing snow. I recently purchased a 1967 657 wheel horse tractor with a 36 inch rear discharge deck. It is basically the same machine from my childhood- The machine is in great condition having been garage kept and maintained all its life. It had been sitting for many years so it took some work to get it back to running condition but I finally had the satisfaction of cutting my grass with it just yesterday. A total trip down memory lane for sure! I am looking forward to interacting with other members here and seeing pics and hearing the tales from other proud wheelhouse owners like myself. Will attempt to post some pics ! 6 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 55,391 #6 Posted July 25, 2019 I love the little '60s short frames. My first was a 1055 and I use it primarily as a snow/dirt mover. If you want a new seat cover you can buy a mighty nice one from @BOB ELLISON, I love mine. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
