From what I've been able to find on line it appears that the main difference between the 200 series tractors is the horsepower. Does this sound correct? Saw a potential parts tractor on Craigslist but it is a 216. Any other differences I should be aware of?

That's the main difference however the 1975 model year tractors are kinda unique.

Heard back from the seller of the parts tractor. Engine threw a rod. Rest of the tractor is supposed to be in good shape. Hope to go get it tomorrow.

The herd begins to grow...

About 20 miles west of Philadelphia for those that don’t know the area.

Good to know there are some folks close. Even though I don’t intend to make mine a show piece I’m considering taking it out to Rough & Tumble next season.

Just got back from Delaware with them he parts tractor....

Seat is new, battery is newer, hood has some cracks but has the headlight lenses, one front tire matches my 212 and is in better shape. Most importantly the deck is in significantly better shape (no holes) and has been rebuilt in the last 4 years. Hope to have it on and cutting tomorrow night!

[Kster526]

[truck21]

[truck21]

[Kster526]

How far from you is it from you Don

 

[truck21]

20 minutes or so.

 

[PA212]

Thank you for the invitations! Hopefully the 2021 show season will happen. I’ve been to a few shows at Rough & Tumble in Kinzers, PA. Quite the place to see and only about 45 minutes west of me.

I’ve also been up to the annual antique truck show in Macungie, PA along with the antique equipment/truck shows at Gerhart Equipment in Lititz, PA. All are great ways to spend a day.

 

[Kster526]

Have to keep me in mind for that one next year Don
