Just figured I would post a few pictures of a 140 that we (my father and I) have been working on. We bought this one, 1979 model, about 4 years ago. It came from an old man that had an acre or 2 garden. Pulled up with a 16ft utility trailer planning on pulling it home. He didn't say how much stuff came with it. Long story short, we filled the trailer with a mower, disc, plows, cultivators, planter, fert distributor and just about anything else you could ask for. I ended up driving the tractor home the 18 miles.
Since we already had two 140's, one just restored, and a ton of equipment there was not an immediate hurry to put this one to work. So it sat for the next year or so. Then we began the disasemble. No pictures of that sorry.
Well, the cardiac kid, my father, decided he wanted to start having annual heart attacks, so the project slowed way down. After 3 years and a couple heart stints we started the cleaning and painting. This is where we stand, chasis painted, tin and add-ons prepped. Started the assembly of fenders etc.
Anyways I will do my best to update if there is any interest in our project.
BTW: Dads OK. He's a tough old bird.
