Tractors story, I got her off of craigslist $250. She was inherited to the previous owner from a passed friend. Owner used it, to mow be for he passed on.. The new guy didn't want a Cub, when he had a Zero turn Deere.. So he put it up.. I got her..

Just to warn you, she was givin a bad, brushed on paint job before I got her also.(currently taking a palm sander to the orig. paint job. ill get pics up soon)

So far, I have replaced the motor mounts, cleaned the orange gas out (found a pc of what looks like hardened tree sap in there)some leafs, stones and bug guts.

She had a mouse nest in the flywheel housing. Got that out!!

Cleaned the points. Changed the valves. Newer battery.

the pics are gonna be before I really did anything to her except the battery change.

My favorite topic...the restoration of a 1250. Looking forward to seeing your pics and progress. Good luck and take your time.
