Nice looking 169.How many hours are on the clock?
I picked up a 169 a couple months ago down at the scrapper very very cheap.Numbers are 2050048U523464 it has hydro lift and headlights.
It runs very very well after replacing points,condenser and a chewed upon coil wire.It has 628 hours on the still working meter.The pump was thought to have gone bad but after further inspection I found a fairly big hole in the pickup tube and an empty tranny.I replaced the line and filled it up and I've been using it regularly to mow and plow with ever since.
I threw some cheap paint on it to keep it from pitting and I plan to restore it after I get my 129 block and crank back from the machine shop.I had the crank balanced and the journal and rod ground for bearing inserts and the block bored .020.She was egged out and had a good bit of blow bye.
