Hi Guys,
Found the forum and I figured I'd introduce myself. I recently purchased my first tractor, a 1979 Power King 1612 with a belly mower. Great shape and was only ever used to mow, never abused. My plans are to keep it as a mower for the summer, mount a plow for the winter and maybe some light agricultural work (once I find a piece of land I like).
Future plans are larger front tires, strip it down and paint it, and maybe install either a second transmission or a hydrostat drive in place of the clutch.
I'll probably be coming to you guys with lots of questions, so be prepared.
