Restorable jaques mighty mite tractor
Here is a Jaques Mighty Mite Tractor I ran across some years ago that I had intended to restore. I aquired it from an arabian horse farm. I did some work for them and noticed this old relic sitting alongside an outbuilding. I asked about it and was told that it was running when it was parked but hasnt been used since the old wagon shed had burnt down. it was sitting next to the shed and the one front tire had been burnt. been parked since. In the process of flat towing it the transmission case was broken due to vibration of a miswelded driveshaft. the trans is whole and can be welded the original hood was missing when these folks aquired the tractor for on their farm. what you see is what I believe to be a nearly whole jaques mighty mite tractor. the engine is cast,and spins free still. it has been tarped for quite a few years now. the rear tires seem to be filled with calcium or concrete they are very heavy. local pickup only unless other arrangements are made. definately a great start for the restorer or someone looking for parts in good condition. I have a few sears suburban tractors made by roper with alot of different attachments also.
