Hi,
My name is Gary. My tractor is a 1973 Simplicity Yeoman 648 that my Dad bought brand new for $699. I have been using it to cut my 3/4 acre lot for the past 14 years and it does a great job for such a little machine. Now I am in the process of restoring it. It is on my garage floor in about 100 pieces. During the life of the tractor, I've rebuilt the engine twice, did a bearing job on mower deck, among many other things, but this is my first complete restoration. If anybody has any tips or has any questions on my restore job, let me know.
