Someone find me some headlights for my B1. I will not rest until I find them. Zippo, yours look stock. They are on a bar that bolts to the uprights arent they?
@slowpokebr549 Actually, for the B-1 there is only one light on the front on top of the hoods. What mounts my lights is a curved light bar that mounts to the grill support. I lucked into a factory chrome light bar and the lights are identical to the stock lights (Guide Lamp) but were on a Harley Davidson FLH. Check out Simpletractors dot comm. Most of what we do to these old machines is in that web sight. Best of Luck to You!!! Cheers!
@surrynet You got it! That's what matches closest to the original. I thought I replied earlier to the inquiry. Sorry!! lol....old brain isn't what it used to be. Cheers!!
@surrynet I appreciate the compliment! She's my baby. There's a few others in the collection that help keep this one from having to do much on the farm which helps keep her nice....Thanks again!
@dmaul7 The paint matches up to Duplicolor DE1607. It's chevy engine enamel and it is tough as nails once it's cured. As close to a perfect match of any other paints I've tried, and that amounts to about 40 shades between the Allis Yellow and Simplicity Orange. Decals link on Simpletractors dott comm. Hope it helps and enjoy the restoration!!
@muttyfutty1 It was actually a fluke! I was at a gentleman's warehouse of vintage farming equipment and saw a dusty old box with the Simplicity logo on it and asked Lowell what was in there. He said it was a damaged rear fender for a 3300 series tractor and that I could just have it since it was boogered up. When I got the box home, there it was, in the box with the damaged fender. A brand new, never mounted seat. Just the luck of the draw!!
@rangerbuddy1066 I actually do use here from time to time. Pulling the yard trailer, pushing or blowing snow and other light duty tasks like that. With it being unrestored, I don't worry too much about a scratch here and there. A full on restoration is eminent, but its not high on the priority list. Thanks for the compliment buddy!!! Cheers!!
has long experience with Simplicity equipment. how does that belly scraper workout? the front dozer blades were good for snow and loose materials. On the 9000's and certain 7000's there were true hydraulics for down pressure. We would hang ag suitcase weights on the front blade when pushing back snow on the lake for ice skating rinks even then one of us would ride the blade and front hood to keep the front tires planted. OSHA be damned
@BornRandy62 You have better control when crowning a gravel driveway with the grader mounted at mid point. Box blades with scarifiers work awesome on the back. Simplicity/Allis-Chalmers also offered a toothed grader which did as good a job as a rear mounted box blade. The trouble with the rear mounted graders, to me, is lack of control with downward pressure. you can stand on the mid mounted grader to assist one side or the other and weights fore and/or aft are an option. Cheers!!
@jujujubee Thanks Juju! A little elbow grease and most of the older machines can really turn out stunning. If you post a video of your 2110, be sure to send it to me when you get one posted. And....most importantly.....ENJOY IT!!! Cheers!!
now that's a badass landlord! love it. the 60's simplicity's are the best in my opinion. i have a 68 2110 that i still mow my grass with. it still cuts like a new john deere wishes it could and looks good doing it. way cool tractor you have.
@seriessixty525 I mow with a pair of 1964 Allis-Chalmers B-10s. Can't beat the stripes these old machines lay down!! Thanks a TON for the compliment. That's my baby. It shares company with 5 others right now. The oldest is my Simplicity made Wards Garden Mark Squire made in 1959 and the newest are my 3 1964 machines. Deers, Cubs and Wheel Horses dream of growing up to be like a Simplicity...lol.
Thanks for the help with the Allis 416 yesterday, and another great vid, kinda short though. My 416 wants to die every 8 to 10 minutes, it seems to run fine, at first I thought it was the electric clutch. I have been jumping the solenoid as I think the switch is bad, any ideas, the electrical connections look clean, non corroded. It runs great mowing.
that's an absolutley bad assed little tractor. was the grading blade made specifically for that model tractor? I like to find one for my suburban. the chrome really sets the red off. It's not over done. i love chrome so it's hard for me to say but some people can get a little gaudy with it. where did you find your tires? I know it's none of my business but whats your total investment (there abouts) in this machine? if you don't mind me asking.
@MrDamnifiknow I believe the grader blades made for the Suburbans were rear mounted on a cat 0 three point and hung out back. They are hard to find, but out there. The wheels and tires are 6-12 Carlisle Tru-Power on 6 x12 inch wheels, the inside rears are 23x10.5x12 on 7.5x12 inch wheels and on front are 16x6.5x8 Firestone Tri-Rib. I truly only have about $800.00 on the tractor. The tractor is self was free, so the $800 is in tires and implements and bling only.
@killerdbob Hey Bob! There was only one type of Landlord in 1964 and this is it. Made by Simplicity and it has a number of implements hanging off it as well as some extra bling. Thanks!
@MegaMoneymaker95 Thanks Mega Money!! She's my pride and joy in the fleet. I'm glad you like it. I don't use her much any more since I have others to take care of my yard chores. Cheers!!!
@Ls7colorado Thanks Ls7! I occasionally put the mowing deck on her for a trip around the yard, but her brothers and sisters (two 1964 B-10s) typically take care of the yard chores.
@ZippoVarga awsome man, I want a old little tuff tractor to fix up and actually use it to mow with. I got about 2 acres but I cant decide what to get. I found a deere 140 for cheap but id like to get something really rare like yours! Nice work!
@TheFunhouse16 Heya little Bro! It's got a 12 horse power Briggs in it right now, with the original 23D 9 Horse Power Briggs rebuilt and ready for paint, then it will go back in. The 12 HP is my dependable spare that goes in which ever tractor needs it's engine rebuilt. Good strong engines these Briggs and Strattons are. What's your favorite engine??
@1DieselFuelOnly1 It would be even Beastlier with a Lombardini!!!! That is something I'm looking at for my Ugly-Alice project. Doesn't have to be a Lombardini, but I'd LOVE a good small stout Diesel to hear clattering along while doing the yard chores. Cheers!
Wow! A work of art that is extremely practical! Nice. Are the lights chrome stack and air cleaner stock? Goes with the hubcaps nicely. I'm into wheel horses right now but I think the old Simplicitys look so cool. Maybe I can find a trade...
@notoriouslizw Thanks for the compliments on my baby!! The Stack and headlights are not stock parts. The Air Cleaner IS a stock part on later Briggs engines and I adapted it to my application. Just had to use a shorter upright on the carb so it would clear the hood, as the original is not as tall as this one. The headlights are actually from a 1984 Harley Davidson FLH and the light bar, which is also chrome, is a stock item that wound up at the chromers somewhere along the way. Thanks Again!!
That set is actually for 10 and 6 inch wheels. I had to alter the 10 inch hub caps by flaring out 4 of the clips to grab the part of the wheel where the hub is welded. I've gotten them from many different places. Ebay for one. Other places include tractor shows that vendors attend. Flea markets etc.
I'll be on a Broadmoor this year. Gotta make room for those gotta have purchases. I'm almost finished with the Broadmoor and I'll be making a video of it once it's finished. Look for it at the show if you happen to be going this August.
With Dual wheel spacers. Much like the large farm tractors use to mount two sets. They were made by Simplicity, Cub Cadet, Wheel Horse, Gravely etc...Most people never saw the need, so they didn't bother investing in them or a spare set of wheels. This makes the stock spacers harder to come by for the older machines.
Not the original exhaust. Thanks for the compliment! The exhaust was purchased at a tractor show. Very good quality, and double walled to keep the chrome looking good.
Now I know thats a 1964 9hp LandLord lol I love them.I have been into collecting these for years and lost my whole collection 11 in all when my sons pole barn burned to the ground I must have cried for a year.Mine was a complete frame off restore but I stuck with the stock exhaust and the same size v's in the rear.Dam its a twin or was I should say.Just a suggestion some guys in this Simlicity tractor club I belong to started putting the stacks on them and a few snapped off at the engine. Cheers
I've got another video of how to reinforce/brace the stacks to the engine. I've been running them for years with no failures. What clubs? Simpletractors, Michaels, MyTractorForum are the three that I frequent the most and usually only when I've got a little free time to play. Cheers!!
yeah i had wanted a horizontal shaft engine garden tractor for 2 years before i got the cub then after i got it home i went on craigs list and there were a ton of allis, simplicity and bolens on there with multiple attachments for the same price but thats the way it works i guiess
Hmm..."Cute"....not exactly how I would describe it but Thanks!! lol The headlights are not original, but are identical in every respect except that they are Chrome. The light bar is original and Chrome from the factory. Thanks for the comment!!
Hey thats something else i wish i had something likle that.I have a craftsman tractor and a wheel horse and stuff i would like to put the Dually wheels on my craftsman but I dont know how or what it takes. again that thing is just incredable. Very Nice 5/5. i even subscribed this is a great tractor. did you redo- it?
Hiya Blaster. Thanks for the thumbs up. The tractor is unrestored. I painted the Hood about three years ago and I've added a lot of chrome. All the tires and wheels are new and just before I took that video I painted the two grill pieces and added new decals. I didn't want to do a whole restore because it's in such good original condition for being 45 years old. Thanks again for the thumbs up!!
Thanks Garrett, but that tractor is all original except for the hood and grill that I pianted. I've thought about restoring her, but she's in very good original shape.
Thanks Bebo! That's a sharp Sears you have there on your home page! You and 500passwords in kahoots? That looked like one of the tractors he showed in one of his videos.
They're Firestone Tri ribs and Millertire has them on ebay. Watch out for sticker shock though.......I had to sell quite a bit on ebay to justify buying them. Your collection sounds great! I had Wheel Horses for a long time before getting into the Allis-Chalmers and Simplicity line of Garden Tractors.
Thanks Kidd! My first Simplicity was a 1964 Broadmoor. Loved that tough little tractor. But when I moved and trippled my property size, well...it would take DAYS to mow...lol. Since then I've had countless come through and a few take up permanent residence. Don't forget the videos while you're working on her!
If they just got it, have them pull the head and see if it isn't just a valve that's stuck. A replaced headgasket is a helluva lot cheaper if all it is is a stuck valve. I've had that problem on a number of engines.
That thing is reeeeeeeeeeally sweet looking. Like those front rib tyres. btw, how much would you reckon a simplicity (like the one I showed you) is worth?
Hey Dan! Thanks for the compliment, but.....believe it or not.....it's not been restored, it's all original. The only thing I painted on the tractor it self is the hood. The rest of it was just good old elbo grease.
Someone find me some headlights for my B1. I will not rest until I find them. Zippo, yours look stock. They are on a bar that bolts to the uprights arent they?

Thanks Garrett, but that tractor is all original except for the hood and grill that I pianted. I've thought about restoring her, but she's in very good original shape.

hey man where did you get those front tires i have 2 1965 wheel horses one is 655 and the other is a 855 and i have a jacobsen chief

They're Firestone Tri ribs and Millertire has them on ebay. Watch out for sticker shock though.......I had to sell quite a bit on ebay to justify buying them. Your collection sounds great! I had Wheel Horses for a long time before getting into the Allis-Chalmers and Simplicity line of Garden Tractors.

Awsome- looks like brand new. One of these days i need to finish working on my 69 broadmoor.

Thanks Kidd! My first Simplicity was a 1964 Broadmoor. Loved that tough little tractor. But when I moved and trippled my property size, well...it would take DAYS to mow...lol. Since then I've had countless come through and a few take up permanent residence. Don't forget the videos while you're working on her!

I have some original pictures when i brot it home- i just posted a video of the simplicity, im getting it back together.
I doesnt have its original 8HP briggs on it- but i still have it in my shed- i transplanted a 10HP briggs on it - for simpler installation.
A few details on the deck need redoing, and it needs to be rewired.

yeah, my friends have a 62 simplicity 725. no compression, needs a rebuild

If they just got it, have them pull the head and see if it isn't just a valve that's stuck. A replaced headgasket is a helluva lot cheaper if all it is is a stuck valve. I've had that problem on a number of engines.

Ok but his dad used to be a collector, he used to have 9 simplicitys! It's the only one he has left to work on.
slowride55 2 years ago
That thing is reeeeeeeeeeally sweet looking. Like those front rib tyres. btw, how much would you reckon a simplicity (like the one I showed you) is worth?

what a awesome restore

Hey Dan! Thanks for the compliment, but.....believe it or not.....it's not been restored, it's all original. The only thing I painted on the tractor it self is the hood. The rest of it was just good old elbo grease.
