ELECTRORIC 230 #1 Posted October 4, 2019 I own 10 Wheel Horses and 4 other brands on Tuesday I was able to get a Case 130 the person I got it from saved it from the scrap yard fifteen years ago never had a chance to restore so he decided to sell I am going to try and save it. 13 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DJE 89 #7 Posted October 4, 2019 Next to my Wheel Horses, I really like my Colts and Cases. They are very well built tractors. Enjoy your new toy!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oliver2-44 9,729 #8 Posted October 4, 2019 Great original patina, your tractor looks fairly complete. I also have a Case 130 to restore and Case 180 that runs and drives but needs an engine overhaul badly. The Case Colt Ingersoll forum is a good place for info, and they have the manual for that tractor. Later today I will PM you some info on Case guys that make repo correct mufflers, exhaust pipes. Also someone that has the fan for in front of the belt pulley for the oil cooler and lots of other repo parts. He also makes the 2 front triangular pieces of sheet metal that mount on the sides of the front grill piece. I can make and send you a pattern of them to make yourself, their just flat sheet metal. Your lucky the Ol Abe Eagle emblem and chrome light rings are still there, repo's of them are pricey. You also have the under seat tool box which was an optional item not often seen today. On the inside of your left rear axle is there a "Parking Brake"? The manual shows one and I'm told it was a option, rarely found today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
