Hmmm. Did I forget, or did I didn't know to start out with? I'm just up to the 82's, now. The Cyclops are newer. I don't even like their nickname. Of course, I don't like the sound of yogurt, either.
BTW - what's the hole in the grille for?
. . . and Dave, while I can still edit, that exposed gas cap is an aggravation to me. If the tractor stays outside I believe that water can enter the gas tank through the vent hole.

It looks to have a 1440 style grill in it. That is the muffler hole.

Yes, it is an 1872. Would have been nice for it to be a diesel, but...oh well. Tore into it a little bit today. The good news is the sheetmetal is pretty nice, but the bad news is that mechanically, everything is about shot, including the hydro unit. The input shaft has significant radial play, so the bearings are destroyed. Hopefully all that shrapnel did not wreck the steering column. I think the first thing I will do is wash it on the next warm day, then pull the steering column and see how that looks inside.
