D_Mac 8,623 #1 Posted April 30, 2021 So my friend asked me if I was interested in his tractor. He wanted to sell it and put the money towards repairs on his truck. I said sure ! So as of 30 mins ago I am now the proud owner of a 1075. Its not the prettiest thing but it runs and drives good. I am kicking around the idea of swapping out the tins with the 875. Still no luck on an engine for that one. It would be nice to have the 875 and the 1075. I know the seat and steering wheel are not correct. Those are not Wheel Horse hub caps but they sure look nice. He has over spray on the tires from painting the rims. Paint is in bad shape. I know I can make it look better. I might have a better seat for it. Here are some photos of the new 1075 and the 875 I picked up few weeks ago. They kinda go together like ketchup and mustard. 3 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACman 7,618 #6 Posted May 1, 2021 Definitely don’t need them to be perfect to enjoy them . Just look at mine and it’s my favorite. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D_Mac 8,623 #7 Posted May 1, 2021 I like the radiator cap. I enjoy them all. I live in the city and no use for any of the ones I buy. I fix them all up a little then pass them along to someone else to enjoy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
