Nice - I can't seem to get one to follow me home. Guess I'm using the wrong bait.

The bait needs to be green and usually requiring alot of it and a very big hook.

I think that is the first 'A' I've ever seen on steel wheels. Are those original? I know steel was an option. Nice tractor, and a great find.

Nice catch, Coop. Can you let us in on your trolling grounds? Now, if I were to find one, it means a 1 ton dually, new trailer, plus the green bait. Oh well, maybe I'll see yours at a show. Bob@allisdowneast

The steel is not original. If you notice the steel spokes are welded to the rims for the rubber tires. It still has the original 9" wide rear rims. The steel kept the rims in perfect condition. I was told this tractor came from an Amish farm.

Nice find and good luck with it. Amazing how those As keep popping up around here. 35 years ago when dad and I purchased our first one nobody in these parts seemed to even knew what an A was.

Update! A couple of new pics
Finally got the motor back from the machine shop. Complete rebuild w\ all new babbits. I had to go to 5 1/4 pistons. Could not find new sleeves in 4 3/4. Added a starter pan and ring too. So far I have went thru the trans and replaced bearings. I am in the process of replacing ever seal and remaining bearings on the tractor. I will be adding more pics soon as well as a parts list for all seals & bearings as well as valves, springs and keepers. Very slow process but it will be factory new when I am done.
