Not bad for a 73 year old girl.
I changed the oil. Going to sharpen her blades and move the lawn soon.

Nothing runs like a Farmall.

It can't be true that it sat all winter and started on first crank. Winter isn't over yet. We just got another 8 or so inches of new snow on top of the knee deep snow we still had.

Sorry winter is over in Terre Haute.
82 yesterday.

Here's proof.

My first tractor was an H. That would also start on the first crank.

If I had to run my life support system off a tractor and generator, I think I would trust an old unit like that one over any of the new stuff !

You started it with the crank? Good for you! I will probably start our C with the crank when I get it out for the first time, because I don't have power in the shed it's in. But there is still a lot of snow in N MN!

Can you please move the lawn to my place, I need some green grass, a change of all this white stuff. lol

Geo-TH,In · Apr 5, 2023

My mom and sister owned this tractor. I ended up with it.
the engine was overhauled. Don't use oil.
Still runs strong.
By far the

smoothest riding 6 ft mower I own.
Does a fantastic job mowing too.

First crank ..... 'first crank' with the starter or 'first crank' with the hand crank? Both are common expressions I would say.

Geo-TH,In · Apr 5, 2023

Starter.
I filled in the hole for a hand crank.

does she get a bath before she move's the lawn?

First start, mine too back around X mass.

I was thinking you were the guy that had to invent things to do. Wash and wax that scroungy tractor. That ought to keep you busy for a while.

Wow. Youre early. No woodfish here yet.

Geo-TH,In · Apr 6, 2023

Doesn't everyone move their lawn to get mowed?

JWinIndiana · Apr 6, 2023

Only after I win the lottery! Nice old C George. So it mowed a lot of Starke County grass in its day?
