So my dad is cleaning out his barn....brought me my pedal tractor from when I was a kid.....well what's left of it. It's an orange 2 Ton Murray pedal tractor....vintage early 70's....wish I could post a picture.

Problem is...the front end is gone....like missing gone.

Searching for one but no luck thus far.

I would like to restore it...decals available....some spare parts available....I have the frame pedal et all....just no front cover.

Will keep looking.

.Damn! Must be a workout pedaling a 2 Ton tractor around :blink:

Of course the ones built that late were probably Investment Cast or Tin? I had a JD some twenty yrs earlier than you which was cast iron.

Donor tractor on its way....complete 2 Ton diesel....grab the parts off I need and sell the rarest item back on ebay...figure I should make half the price back.

Only thing missing are the engine "covers".

Not a surprise....all of them are missing them....or at least one.

Let the games begin...tractor rebuild on :tooth:
