Justin, I had a typo in the last caption, (corrected with an edit) the Scout belonged to Bruce, Ralph's son. Anyway, not sure what happened to the Scout. I was born in 1961 and don't have any recollection of it. The Willys on the other hand my parents had up until around 1969 or 1970 and I vividly remember it. Might also help that for a many years I owned a 1956 (parts Willys) and a 1958 Willys, both long gone. My parents sold their Willys because it was rusting pretty bad. Towards the end the drivers door wouldn't stay latched, so my dad made a wood latch of some sort that would hold it shut from inside. Loved that old thing.

Here's me by my parents '57 Willys circa Edit: I think this photo was more likely 1964 or 1965 not 1967.

Here's a photo of me with my 1958 Willys up at the cabin circa 1981.

Kraig, you got a few years on me. I was born in 1976. Willy’s was a good vehicle..scout tried to compete with it. But, anyways thanks for some cool piece of history. I’m always interested in geneology and historic pictures.

Rack 'em and stack 'e,m!!
Did a lot Kubota's that way.
Miserable loads to secure on a flatbed or stepdeck.
Too much climbing around, A trained monkey would have come in handy!!

Speaking of coming in handy...
Yeah, for sure this rig is gonna come in handy
Even if I don't have a hood and nose piece for it yet!!

No scout, but here are a couple of pics of the truck I grew up with.


I was around age nine here.

This was after I got married in 82'.

Wish I had it now!

Almost forgot.
Picked up another attachment for my next 100 today.

Definitely needs a cleaning before I do anything to it.

Plan on picking up something to hook to it next week!

Ok ,I need some help finding the correct part. My son has my old CW-36 snow thrower and he told me last night last year he kept throwing the belt and it didnt make sense when it was working perfectly then all a sudden he couldnt keep the belt on. So I had him bring his tractor over an thrower and we could look at it together. I found the bearing coming out of the gearbox to the sheave was broken. So I need to see if anyone knows which part number this could be ? Ty

Notice the 12hp 147 in literature shots. All of the early literature showed 127's redecaled as 147's. This included the promotional video (Farmington Implement) introducing the 6/7 series.
