hey gang...

i have been out for a while ,actually i have been in the basement working on my recent aquisition...hey that sounds important

i got a 1977  1612 powerking tractor. it has a 12 horse kohler (k301 cast iron). all gear drive ,3pt hitch, front electric pto,front mount snow  dozer blade,mid mount 48 " mower and it has 16 inch rear wheels and 8 inch front wheels.

i have been using already and have been doing some restoration work,i would like to get it in as near original condition as i can.

it is very strong compared to the monster tractor and its heavy a well,all cast iron and steel ,no plastic there.

maybe miss snowshoveler will post a pic.

Sounds to me like you're both keepers...

And a little maintenance keeps things interesting...

Despite the high cost of living, have you noticed how it remains so popular.

Sherri,

I admire your efforts to help the less fortunate in society.  Allowing that homeless street alky to try Chris's new tractor will inspire him to make a better life for himself, no doubt.

He will want to register in a provincial re-training program to become a heavy equipment operator, and thereby become a useful member of society...stealing P&H shovels, Case front-end loaders and flat beds off construction sites, creating new sales opportunities and jobs for insurance adjustors.

                                        

<<< my apologies: the devil had a pitchfork to my back: "Post what I say, or I'll return you to the land of ice and snow or Nova Scotia, land of permanent rainfall and mosquitos that swallow ravens whole."  So, I had no choice ....really....  the 24/7 BBQ season here suits me>>>

Honda stable: HS 724 snowblower;  HRS216 lawnmower; BF2 UWWW; 5 HP, 2200 psi/2.9 GPM pressure washer.

Electric: BV2500 B&D Leaf Hog/snow duster; old 12" Weedeater.
