Hi folks my name is Brian and I have a problem ...... I keep collecting antique stuff to overhaul/rebuild, why cant I just let it go to the scrap yard? ..... Sound familiar to anyone! My barn is so full I need to build another one. I've been lurking around here for awhile and decided to join. Looks like alot of great people and the information on this site is top notch. My father, son (16 years old) and I just love tinkering with ... well ... about anything. My son is the worst. He just has to have anything old that we come across .... atleast that's what I tell his mom ... "but hunny it was YOUR sons idea to buy it" ... (I think she is starting to catch on). LOL Here is a list of the running and/or restored "junk" in the barn.
1948 farmall H
1953 farmall super H
IH Cub Cadet 682
IH Cub Cadet 782
1969 ford 140 hydro with 48" deck and a 32" tiller
1970 ford 120 hydro

1957 RJ 35 ponds (wheel horse)
1966 L-165 wheel horse lawn ranger

Next on the list will be a old IH hit and miss, If I can find one in my price range .... sure hope somebody on here knows something about them.
I just got a MTD Cub 1320 Hydro that I am searching for info on .... Not really a "classic" but the price was right and I figured it will be a good machine to mow the yard with.
Well enough about me and thanks for putting up with a long post from a newbie ..... Heading to the CC MTD section to ask some questions.
Brian
