the 86....
 

This came home today.
73 86 with creeper,snowthrower,mower deck , and chains.
some thingys on the wheels.
It came with a new , complete pto.
Not sure if I should keep it or part it ......not!!!:biggrin2:

Congrats on the 86 and attachments, Lew.

Thanks Allen.

Nice Lew! Finally got your 86!:beerchug:

I have another Mikey!!!

Glad you got it lew, nice original seat?:biggrin2: did he come down on the price ? If not it was cheap enough to just pay the $350:biggrin2:u still stole it.

I did not know that!:biggrin2:
The latter looks like the keeper though!:beerchug:

I was hoping someone here would snatch that up. I had a hunch who it might be....Congrats on the 86! Those "thingys" on the wheels are weights, use those a while you may want to pick up another set. :biggrin2: HaHa

Lew you're killing me down here. It's bad enough you have a piece to my puzzle, not to mention two! Very nice though and cool add ons, 86s are awesome. First one even has steering wheel decal and side panels, sweet

Must be nice to have the market cornered. Your my hero. :biggrin2:

Looks great Lew.

Thanks Alvy,the second one has one also.
Should I add the 86 to your list you gave me?:biggrin2:

Thanks Daniel:beerchug:

SMH... He's done it again! Nice find on the loaded 86, Lew.

Bring some of those weights to RPSD and drag one or two around on a chain by your belt so we can easily identify you.

Thank you for remembering. And you never know. :bigthink:

Good looking tractor Lew:beerchug:
You needed a seat for your boat:biggrin2:

more like I need a boat for my seat!

I agree.:biggrin2:

I spent some time yesterday on it and went over a few things, it sat for 12 years in the garage.Removed the plug and squirted some oil down the cylinder, fixed the saftey switches, replaced the amp gauge as it was hooked up wrong when the po replaced the wire harness,new fuel line and cleaned out the old gas.Surprisingly the tank was clean.I did not clean the carb out, just wanted to see how it ran.It has a new clutch and the creeper was redone by madsens in WI.PO kept all the receipts and original manuals in a binder.

Pulled the choke out, turned the key, and it fired right up.Ran it for a while till the smoke stopped, and took it for a ride, no smoke or knocks but the brake style pto needs to be rebuilt and as the carb as it started to mark it's territory.

Looks good lew, glad it runs good,mark it's territory I get it lol, I have dealt with madsens In wi many times, :beer2:

Is it a keeper or a flipper?:biggrin2:

A keeper works in a zoo.
flipper is in a aquarium.

Ok lew lol so are you gonna hold on to it for awile?

My restored 86 after a bath, beat that lew.:biggrin2::beerchug:

Looking good nick,
You should take a bath too as I smell ya, later nick

Thanks lew, so should you, will a pool do? That rhymes:biggrin2: later lew.

Lew! Buddy I'm sorry. I thought I commented on this post. Could have swore I did.....

Lew,
Great find on a good running tractor! Your 86 fleet is growing. The thrower looks to be in real good shape! Weights and chains are good options too. Glad it runs and drives! Hang on to that one for a while.
Nick, yours is very nice also! You did a great job on the restoration!
Regards,
Chris

This is Lew's thread, hijacked by the Nikster............:biggrin2: :biggrin2:





Only kidding Nick! BOTH 86's look good guys. :beerchug:

Thanks guys, sorry josh but mine looks great, not good, it has ih hubcaps and a nos 86 muffler hehe.:biggrin2:

Nick is a kind kid,the kind that hijacks your thread.:biggrin2:

I stood up the other day for Nick,
Someone told me he hijacks your thread,
I told them he hijacks your thread and fills your PM box up:ROTF2:

Removed the pto the other day to fix the misaligned pto finger and replace the pto pulley as it was damaged from it being run out of adjustment.
The brake was dated DEC,1999.

lew , you know you enjoyed hanging out with me at the show, and lew is the fart smella kind:biggrin2:, I told Cubcrazy and Sam that when we were out to dinner that you called me a fart smella and their drinks almost came out their mouths and noses.:biggrin2: right mike:bigthink:

There where a couple instances like that Nickster!
