I have been looking for a really small vintage lawn tractor for my kid for Christmas . When I was a teenager I worked at a machine shop and I rehabbed a tiny old wheel horse for my boss no idea the model number but it was about half the size of a modern mower by my recollection.
I have a lead on a 1967 JD 60 but before I drive up to look at it as it’s about 1.5 hours away I was wondering how small are these things? Also how hard is the steering and brake/clutch pressure needed to operate?
I figure I can move the seat all the way forward and I can fabricate a pedal extension. It comes with a deck but he won’t be allowed to have that for a few years nor will he find out about the high gear pulley.
So is this thing as small as it looks in the pictures, and could a small kid muscle the steering wheel around?
Thanks for the input.
