New old tractor

[i-wagon]

Just got a 69 simplicity sovereign that I've been waiting ten years for! Tractor was fully restored 12 years ago, stripped down and repainted except hood, engine bored out, fresher hydro. Has a mowing deck (also redone) and we're going after a mid mount grader blade this week. Only issues is the starter/generator is crapping out and the fuel tank rusted out and the cheap replacement interferes with hood fitment. I'll try to get pix later but if someone knows where to find a proper fuel tank or rototiller for it please let me know

I wonder if this snow blower attachment would fit?

Hang a keg off the front end and use that as a gas tank.

If I really wanted one is ask that guy if it would fit, but we have a snow thrower for the new broadmoor if we need it, got a guy looking in to the tiller, and found a fuel tank today with no holes

pic of said tractor equipped with mid mount grader blade, deck leaning against beam, and hood to the right. Tank I found doesn't fit (booo). And we can't seem to locate the left side panel that hides the lift linkage and fuel tank. But I graded the driveway with it today, still purrs like a kitten

Looks nice. My father in law has 2 Wheelhorses and a big ass Kubota too. Sure makes life easier!
