damn, that's the first time Ive seen you using a tractor for one of it's actual intended purposes, at about 3:08, there is a tractor with a dozer blade. what kind of tractor is it?
haha! thats actually what i was doing for about 4 hours today out there. with the one wheelhorse though. That is an Original Cub Cadet. the first model that they made. for 2 or 3 years. just called, Cub Cadet. :) Its awesome. 7hp kohler, and a real clutch, (though it does have a tiny 3/8's drive belt that slips) same transmission that they used in the international Cub Lo-Boy's, and farmall cub's. just with out the pto in it. Thats how we made the pile! with those tractors with plows!
awesome! those old cubs are getting especially hard to find. So you just scraped dirt up out of the field to build the pile, entirely with garden tractors?
Yeah, drew found that for 50 bucks i think. runs perfect. you can have it idle at what seems like 200 RPM. and it just sounds great. can even putt around like that!
Yep! all tractors. we put a bottom plow on the bolens 600, and that dug up, and turned the soil over, then we used the wheel horse, the cub cadet, and a bolens everyonce in a while to push it up onto the pile. :) took a long time... many many hours, but it was fun! wheel horse did best, the plow pushes on the back wheels!
damn! 50 bucks for a cub! you guys are some lucky bastards! and I thought you guys only romped those tractors. I guess thats one extra feature they unknowingly put in when they designed those tractors; mowing, tilling, plowing, romping.
And then some. we'll have to get some of that gilson glue to coat the cylinder walls so they don't lock themselves and throw away the key. too bad theres no way to take the spark plugs out of an engine, and crank it over till all the water sprays out of the cylinders... that would make me not afraid to hydrolock the bitch. But i know a guy, he's cool about it, he could hook me up with drilling some holes in the cylinders to let the water out. He's just cool about that kind of stuff.
it is a pretty healthy car. at one point some one put a 4A engine in it, instead of the 3AC that it came with, so i think that means its a 1.6L instead of a 1.5L. the 80 tercel is a corolla tercel right? those things are seriously cool looking.
Check out this video i have of reving it up, you can see the tach pretty well.
i'll upload that now. or try to atleast...What's a redhawk??? is that a toyota?
Looks like fun!

Another cinematic gem from TOMMARTYN. Love it, love it, love it. Especially the mud puking up through the floor... beautiful.
