John Deere Model B Restoration

Here are some pictures of a friends John Deere him & I restored. I don’t have any pictures of it after the rebuild, but it turned out nice. We rebuilt the engine, gave it a new paint job, and rewired it.

    the lever just below…Is that a timing adjustment or what?

    • miles says:

      On the steering column there is a lever for choke and one for throttle. On the dash there is a headlight switch (pull out type).
