My B1 is missing the choke lever and cable. Was at a show and finally remembered to snap a picture. Anyone have one and willing to ship to 54449? I'm assuming it could be coiled up and fit into a small box or padded envelope? Thanks  ------------- The mechanic always wins. B91131, WC23065, WD89101, CA29479, B1, Early B10, HB212, 416H |

Don’t have a B1 but for some reason that doesn’t look factory? Ive seen them coming through the dash. Would be easy to fabricate one though if you have a machine shop close by to bend the piece of metal. Choke cable can be modified to fit easily with a pair of side cutters and needle nose pliers. ------------- 1968 B-208, 1976 720 (2 of them)Danco brush hog, single bottom plow,52" snow thrower, belly mower,rear tine tiller, rear blade, front blade, 57"sickle bar,1983 917 hydro, 1968 7hp sno-bee, 1968 190XTD |

I'm wit' Rob. That looks like it's a fabricated one. Nice job whoever did it, but if I remember correctly I thought the "B" series GT's had the cable mounted in the dash. (?) Steve@B&B ------------- 39'RC, 43'WC, 48'B, 49'G, 50'WF, 65 Big 10, 67'B-110, 75'716H, 2-620's, & a Motorhead wife |

Thank you I do believe that set up is original. I think you might be remembering the B10 where choke and throttle in dash together. We have a few old B1 in barn and could look

If that's a fabricated one, several people have fabricated them the exact same way. Seen several B1s like this. ------------- The mechanic always wins. B91131, WC23065, WD89101, CA29479, B1, Early B10, HB212, 416H |

| My B-1 doesn't have choke on it and there isn't any hole where your picture show it pivoting. |

Mike Z, Did you ever check those B1's you have? Curious if that's original for the B1. I didn't notice the first time, but looks like there's a narrow decal right behind that lever....

| I’ll have my nephews look next week. I can’t get near them. But I looked at simplicity 725 parts book and it’s in there. I’ll have them look at our 725 also |

| If that picture was take at Baraboo GOTO, I believe it is my B1. When I purchased the tractor years ago it was nearly complete (and ran). I did fabricate the choke lever when I restored it. The original lever is bent the same, but has crescent shaped cutouts on the vertical edge. The top part of the lever also was rubber coated, I dipped mine in liquid electrical tape. |
