Paul,

Super nice find!
I couldn't help but notice, there are two different size front wheels. Did they give an explanation?

By the way, your 100 looks better than mine!

Dual = 2, two.

Duel = sword or gun fight between two people.

Dual rear wheels, dual hydraulic.....

Pick up with 2 rear wheels per side....."dualie"

Duel was also a movie starring Dennis Weaver about a truck driver chasing a guy in a car.

This 100 had the optional wide wheels and tires, but one of the front ones was "air challenged", so the narrow one is one I had on the shelf and put on it to move it around.

Paul,

That explains it. Are you going to restore it, or leave as-is?
Either way, it's a beaut! I love the 100s!

By the way, the one I am working on was also born in June of 64'! (June 9th if calculated right)

I was born in Feb. 64' so it's pretty close the same age as me.

Marty, I'll figure that out once it is cleaned up and running.

So the second seat is for 9 foot tall operators right?!
Paul, really nice rig there

Earl,

I was told the 2nd seat was for the grandchildren to ride on.......hopefully not when mowing.

I see many IH decals on seat springs. I wonder if that was a dealer thing. What does the earliest steering wheel decal look like?
