Most Reliable Thing I Own
Model Year: 1931

My regular was converted to rubber tires before I got it, 12.4 - 36's in rear and 6.00-16 in front. Thirty-odd years I have owned it, and used it for ploughing snow from a mile of driveway and hiring out to do so or neighbors, skidding logs, hauling hay, rescuing stuck trucks (including County snowplough)and 4WD tractors, occasionally pulling 2-14 plow. All the repairs I have had to do to it are, made new bras float or carb. to replace sodden cork one, re-welded cracks where spokes of rear wheels attach to wheel rims, replace rivets holding spokes to discs, replace clutch pilot bearing, and grind valves once.

Pros: Reliable, economical, powerful, nimble.
Cons: Tippy.
