I have a 122 which does all I need it to do.
I am thinking of adding a narrow frame tractor with hydrostatic tranny which would be one of these models (if I did my research accurately) : 105, 107, 123, 125, 127, or 147 . Definitely want to stay IH not CCC.
It would be a light workhorse. No ground engaging, digging or gardening. Pulling a 17 cubic foot trailer loaded with limbs and logs to carry to burn pile. No dirt or snow blade pushing..we don't have enough snow to mess with a blade and my land is as level as it needs to be. Lift hitch on rear would be nice to move a larger utility trailer in the yard to its resting spot.
I know they range from 10HP to 14 HP. I don't need a looker but would want to avoid a rusted one. I would need a solid mechanical unit. I am not a mechanic and don't have tools, youth, or skills to personally restore one.
Thoughts or ideas for me to consider? Not in a hurry. Probably as scarce as hen's teeth in central NC where I live.
