1206 Custom chassis...

I received a call from a gentleman in Indiana who wanted a loaded 1206 diesel... After looking on line for an Iseki chassis, and not finding one, I talked to my son, Eli and we decided to offer the chassis that I was building for Eli. The customer agreed and Eli and I started looking for a 4x4 tractor.

This is what I started with... a "Super" Cub Cadet with a bad engine.

 3 cylinder diesel out of a "Thermo King" straight truck refrigeration unit. Yanmar built the engine for Thermo King.

 Eli and I working on the tractor when it was still his...

 I don't normally scratch build swinging draw bars and 3 point hitches... but it was for my son so...

 Turbo and 1466 grill installed...

And then we sold it...

 This is the progress so far... She has turned to a 1206

Steering is done and works very nice...

 Headed to the sandblaster...

 Some red paint... This is this 1206 and my son's 1466's parts as well...

Starting to look like a tractor again...

Almost done...

More later,
Kurt
