Hello from S. Florida

[Oldstang]

This is my dad’s model 72. He past away almost 3 years ago and I finally talked my mom into letting me bring the ole girl home and get it going again. Other than a good cleaning and some new front tires it seems to be in real good shape.

WELCOME!

Welcome! She looks to be in good shape. Even the front tires look to be decent. She'll probably fire right up with some fresh gas.

Enjoy, I am expecting my first shipment of parts today to get my project moving forward. Photo self explainitory. Where did you purchase the tires?

 

[mjame]

I bought them at an auction of a closed IH dealer 30 years ago along with a trailer load of other parts. I kept these tires and several other sets stored high and dry for decades.
Just about everything on my 72 came from that auction.
