few pic's of the little toro with the deck

put the deck on the little toro and cleaned it up real nice,dying to fire it up but probably shouldn't since it's not mine for sure,don't know if it even has ever been fired before or not. KW

Hey KW, that is for certain leftover Springfield parts with new Toro sheetmetal. Congratulations on getting yourself a Springfeild LOL.

whatever it is it's a very rare beast you wish you had LOL

Anything that old and that new at the same time is about as cool as it gets.

I was teasing buzz about him wishing he owned it shoot man I wished I owned it.My friend said I could end up with it but thats a long ways off from owning it.I'm just a keeper of a rare tractor right now.I hate not knowing if it's mine or not kinda sucks,I'd pay a certain amount for it but shoot man no HUGE bucks either,I'm working my butt off selling his inventory and not taking a very big cut,so I would expect to pay a pretty low price or i'll just forget it,actually maybe give it to me and sell everything and not take hardly any money would be fair who knows we will see how it plays out.It might look better on me if I signed a paper saying i'd never sell it and just show it.He's a good guy and that kind of attitude would go a long ways with him,so i'll keep sucking up and hope for the best LOL ,KW

That is an awesome machine! I'd have to get it started and enjoy a little seat time.

Just play it cool and hope for the best and if he shoots you a high price or wants to sell it to someone else then you can take a sledgehammer to it. lol Not really, that would be murder.
By the way, you havent come across a Simplicity seat in all the stuff have you? Sure would like to have the right seat on the Homelite.

What kinda seat does it take JD?,I know what the homelite's look like but don't remember what the seats look like...KW

I think it looks just like the one on your Simplicitys

JD on your home lite is that some type of hub for duals?

It's got a external diff behind the right wheel and I guess this is part of the goofy setup. It only has the big hub on the right side.

it is the same seat JD,they are kinda exspensive,I bought 3 of the for my uncle last year I think they ran $72.00 a piece,really awesome seats tho..I can still see about the new ones if you want .I don't have anything used...KW

Way over complicated, but it works.

I don't have time to even wish I had it, seeing as how I got a really involved project just getting under way right now. I just brought home another 1996 Toyota T100 that is the same model and features as my old green one, only it's blue and the motor is beyond repair. I picked it up cheap with 500 bucks worth of new tires on it and a few hundred dollars worth of tools in it, and only paid 1000 dollars for it, not bad for 100 miles from home lol. So now I am starting an engine swap between the green and blue T100s to have a hell of a truck again, for dirt cheap.

That would be great! I can't seem to find a seat worth a crap and I want to keep this ole pig looking original.

i'll start looking JD,man you should redo that thing would love to find one of those,got that old B-110 allis home thinking about redoing it,can't stand to junk it,kinda got me into allis's it doesn't take much to get me started on something i'm kinda sick that way lol KW

I'm planning on redoing it and keeping it original for the most part. Think I may put 12x6 duals on the rear and tri-ribs up front, but other than that I'm keeping it the way it should be. I've got a friend that does decals so I'm goin to have all new stickers made up for it when I paint it. Should look pertty good when it's done.

I really like those models where they put the headlights on the side of the hood,I hated the models that had the square headlights in the hood.Simplicity/allis did those models,had a simplicity baron which was a total brute but never cared for the hood and headlights.To a lot of people thats not a big deal but to me it makes a big difference,it has to appeal to me before i'll own it,don't care about rust or dents it has to have a look I like before i'll mess with it,
Your homelite has that look for one it's a homelite not many around,painting it back blue and white would be cool and the headlights,it has a lot that would interest me thats for sure,,,KW

The headlights are what sold me on it. I looked it over and thought it's ok looking then I went around front and saw the shape of the grill and the lights and that was it, had to have it. Not like the Sears I just brought home. One hell of a tractor, but dang that thing is UHG-LEE! The grill looks like the @$$ end of hard times...lol

so its like a mirror for you?

is the sears a suburban?,The customs I thought were one of the coolest looking little rides around the poor old suburban they went the opposite way.One awesome strong tractor but it's like they sat down and said ok we are going to make a big brute of a tractor,everything will be very well built,then to top it off we are going to make it so homely people are going to buy it because they will feel sorry for it.Sorry not trying to offend suburban guy's but dang man they are ugly.I've own several and all were ugly.Still like them because they are old but never restored or repainted one I looked at it like it was a waste of good paint use it, work it, forget it LOL KW

I guess it's a Suburban lol... Not up on Sears tractors.
