Just bought an 1864. Found it on Flea Bay. Made the deal over the phone, hope it doesn't bite me in the A$$. Anyway I'm having it shipped rather than going to pick it up. Shipping price was better than I could do if I went to get it. Guy said it had a mouse nest in the blower housing and it's not running as it should. At least it runs so the plan is to patch it up and then do an engine swap with the engine in the wife's JD dump truck. The JD has a CH22 with only 25 hours on it and it gets about 5 hours per year so it doesn't need a first class engine. I'll do the normal rear end re-seal, rear end braces, new fuel lines, seat cover, gauges and what ever else it needs. Here are a couple pics. More after I get my hands on it. :beerchug:

Yep, it's in PA. Late 1995 machine. Can't find anything in this area. All we have around here is clapped out Murrys, Crapsmans and Big Box junkers. :beerchug:

Some duct tape and a seat cover, good as old and better than new. Besides the seat covers double as cup holders and they are cloth so your butt doesn't sweat. :biggrin2:

Should be one Bad A$$ tractor with a CH22 under the plastic. Guess it will be a 2264, sort of like a short 2284. I can see a set of loaded Tru-Powers on the back and some ribbed sneakers up front. Merry Christmas to ME! Probably won't do much till the weather warms up, come on spring. :beerchug:

You definitely got the pick of the litter from that group! Now let's hope the shipper doesn't mess up the plastic in transit. Reveal in April maybe?
