I always appreciated this 1975 1650 but a friend was in need last yr so I sold it to him..A quick message said he would sell it back to me at a very reasonable price and include the hyd blade he had added...In a heartbeat I said yes...The last hyd blade(lift only) I had was on a 129 and used it often...So the first thing I had to do was try the blade on some hard pack dirt.It lacked good traction so I need to put the weight box and wheel weights back on and the chains to make it a mini dozer again...It's good to have a heavy duty machine back....My friend decided he just had to have a hyd bucket so paid serious bucks for a new small toyota tractor with all the bells and whistles:better him than me.. 50 yrs old and still doing the job!!!
