Rob J. 1,942 #1 Posted June 21, 2022 Well I found a nice original machine from Michigan. The story goes this was bought by a guy who used it to mow his landing strip for ultra lites for many years. He obviously keep it under cover. I purchased this yesterday not because it was a desirable model or had been restored, I bought this because it is the most complete, original everything tractor down to the 36” deck I’ve ever personally come across and I couldn’t let it go. It is a B-100 Automatic with of course the Kohler 10. All I have done to it so far is blow it down with an air hose. It’s starts and drives perfect. A little smoke when quickly hitting the gas. This guy is affectionately known as Trailblazer. It sole use will be grooming my trails. I will be soaking it down with some degreaser and power washing this weekend once this damn heat lifts. 6 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob J. 1,942 #2 Posted June 21, 2022 The only thing not original from what I can tell is the solenoid and the addition of some reflector lights on the rear. The hitch pin is free. Deck has new bearings and blades. 1 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I WOULD HAVE to have some room for it to be stored inside… 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
