How about my name is Joaquín from Uruguay, I am trying to restore a 1947-48 Gibson Wisconsin tractor, I would like to know if you can give me information to obtain or adapt a carburetor for this tractor. Greetings and thank you very much for your attention

Eine tolle Sammlung, Herr Kollege! Da kann ich leider nicht mithalten, bei mir gehts erst ab 1960 los.

I'm viet nam

Super cool. I fell in love with old lawnmowers, when the 60's-70's muscle cars got stupid expensive.

mostly B&S 8b series

Sir how much horsepower?

Nice collection!😀

This puts me in mind of what my Dad may have been replicating on a smaller hydraulic equipped home build(Dad's has a steering wheel). 9hp Briggs, w/automotive components ... (exception fabric shoe snap clutch)3spd. GM top-loader, PS pump, 2hard lines/quick couplers to front & back, '57 Plymouth diff. cut, welded/annealed, 15" implement lug(full of Ca/H20) , I need to bring brakes to function(refurbish/add individual brake cylinders) and decrease steering radius. Dead simple ... Top speed? 14 MPH

Nice collection.

I just got a free Sensation today! Love this vid!

I have a 1965 eatons viking tecomaster lawnmower its a rotary unit with a 3 hp Briggs good video

Nice vintage engines!

Do you still have them?

Love the old equipment

Those mowers are so nice to see.

Don't get any better than that 😉

That's what I'm talking about, nothing like vintage

Hi have the same tractor I’m trying to get the gear back into neutral, can you help with any ideas. Used to be my wife’s grandpa’s tractor. I would like to refurbish it for our grandchildren for the future.

Used to cut lawns in the 70"s??

I want to buy some of these growing up my dad and I use to fix them..its nice to see how valuable this kinds of small engines are, great memories we had, thanks

Briggs and Stratton used to make such cool engines.

Very cool, i love them and kinda remember a few still hanging around during my childhood in 80s. i mostly do garden tractors, but restored and use a Craftsman rotary blade push mower, it works great and I have an older Craftsman walk behind, but not the older i prefer ;) i also want a motorized reel mower (with the cool "coleman type" gas cans), gang reel mowers for a garden tractor, and one of those sweet gems you have. Theyre nice like today when i replaced the idler pulley spring on my Bolens 48" deck, but then the center bearing went out and it was too overgrown for my dogs paws getting wet, so i did some old school pushin' lol. Good work and thanks for sharing.

Beautiful !!!!!! I love those old 4 bangers.

Definitely not cheap Chinese made.

Nice collection

Wow this an awesome collection, in generally original condition; 1946 RPM Craftsman, approx. 1960 Sensation, 1954 RPM, Mid 50's Snapper, 1959 Eclipse 21. Some of these are very rare especially for their condition. The Eclipse has a very practical design, was a great mower to use. The early rotaries were modeled after reel mowers, with the wheels on the sides, preventing up-close trimming.

That isa Beast of a Tractor!!!

I was impressed by the wonderful video. Old mowers can be used for a long time with maintenance. The channel has been registered.

Still waiting to see another like mine . Can date the briggs to 1952 .

Awesome video. I got a sunbeam electric I got at auction for a dollar. Work's great still. Kinda sounds like a blender. Lol

That orange one (Jacobsen maybe?) looks just like a Cooper "Cyclo-Mow" that I used to have from the same time period. It had the same engine and deck but it was green and rear wheel self propelled. It was a great mower but it would blow clippings up out of the front and then the wind would blow them right back into your face! Also had a "Cooper Klipper" power reel mower that was super dangerous, if you hit an obstruction with one wheel it would instantly do a 180 turn and start chasing you!

Nice parade!! 3 year old video - I have one maybe from the 1950's. 3hp brigs engine painted white (original paint) and "ford blue" aluminum deck. The wheels are white. Starts on the first or second pull every time. I use ethanol free fuel only. Too bad we couldn't upload pics... I get complimented on it constantly. paid five bucks for it two years ago. I don't know the original maker of it - I can't find anything like it.

Nice collection buddy

Thank your for posting this!

Why do Clinton engine mufflers look like cigars?

Thing is, these older machines will most likely out live us. They really dont make em like they used to

before the idea of a recoil pull start or a side shoot was in the minds of humans.

So COOL! It looks like a couple of the mowers have a flip over handle. I miss not having that in mowers of today.

.40 thing looks deadly

With the engine cold, the choke should be closed. If it's manual choke, the butterfly should open and close while cranking. If not, the diaphragm is weak and the spring weak. Automatic chokes, the butterfly should be closed cold and open up as the engine warms up. Start the engine with the throttle wide open and choke closed. On manual chokes, the butterfly should move open and closed while cranking to prime the engine and let in air. If not it's the diaphragm and spring. Open the throttle fully open and see if the fast idle screw touches the engine. If not, replace the governor spring. It's gotten weak and loose. Vacujet is manual choke. The tubes on the side of the carb. are small. On automatic choke, the side piece is large and the tube end is small. Automatic choke, the side piece is large and inlet tube part is small. Automatic choke should be closed cold and open up as it warms up. Set both at fast idle when starting.

I LOVE IT ! :)

*This little mower is awesome.>>>**t.co/3MgR6YCaH9** Worth twice what it cost. Powerful and quiet if you use around animals*

Most of them are old rpm lawn boys

A vintage veteran's parade,. .

I've just acquired a Wachs steam engine as well. Search Wachs Type R on youtube to see it. Trying to find out approximately what year it was made. I presume it is after yours - it's a fully enclosed, self-lubricating type. If you have any info about what models Wachs made, that info would be well-received. I contacted the E. H. Wachs company and was told that after the sale of the company all the steam engine documentation and refurbished engines were gotten rid of.

Oh My God, This is my grandpa's old Gibson tractor that after he got older, I use to plow his/our vineyard in Monta Vista, California also known now as Cupertino. I loved this tractor so much and he had it rigged up to where you could crank start it as well as the rope on front. And being a boiler maker/pipe fitter in the San Francisco rail yards, he eliminated the muffler and had a straight pipe with a 90* elbow pointing up. I use to clean up and emaculate our vineyard with this baby needing very little attention. The belt clutch, the steering stick, and I would raise and lower the rakes on the back. The best small tractor ever made. I miss it and am trying to locate my uncle Jim Dyer in Cupertino, California to see if I can get it back. P.S. With his Yugoslavian accent, he use to call it the "Littlee Gypson", "Gibson". The Wisconsin air cooled engines were the work horse, and I believe the three speed trans and rear end were Ford. God Bless my grandfather, Frank Mikulaco. Thank you for you video, Paul Mikul 808 959-3057
