I've been working on my 107 lately. When I got it, it had some spider-web-wiring, weird muffler setup, and smoked really bad. I've disassembled, cleaned, and repaired some items as it's been going back together. Here are some pictures of the progress so far.

Does it still have the stock exhaust elbow? I don't remember.
I came with an extra motor and parts box, which had the exhaust elbow in it.Lance

That's an interesting muffler, and heat shield...
I know a "guy" who happens to have the headlight panel for that tractor. Just missing one ring.They can't all be turn key.
Make the best of each and every day.

Worked on the 107 a little today. Got it fired up to seat the head gasket. I need to go back and retorque the head now. Here are some pictures to prove it happened.You do not have permission to view this gallery.

Been too busy. I have heat out there, so cold isn't a problem. Thanksgiving was last week and I've been busy with the Christmas musical at church. I did get my brass PTO buttons in from Jeff, so there's that. I didn't want to put the front end back on until I had those. I wanted to try and run the tractor for a little while before setting it up for snow duty, on the off-chance I have an issue with it. Not sure I'll get to do that though.

Got the 107 finished up this morning. I had the day off so I went out early, turned on the heat, and finished her up. I added headlights, spring assist, wheels w/ chains, weights, and installed the snow thrower. The PTO button was gone so I ordered some from Jeff. I’m happy with the way it turned out. She still smokes a lot, but I’m hoping maybe the rings just need to reseat themselves. If the smoke doesn’t stop after a few hours of use, I’ll probably look into tearing into it.You do not have permission to view this gallery.
