Case 195?
Ah crap... I think I'm developing symptoms of C.A.D. (Case Acquisition Disorder)...
Just saw a listing on FB Marketplace and don't know if I can tell that I would really like a vintage looking tractor with the round "Bug" eyes...
It says "a 70's tractor" but looking at the photos and a little bit of googling I think it's a late '60s vintage because of the metal pan seat - the handle on the right hand side of the cowl had me a bit confused as most pictures on the web show a great big lever on the R. Side - is that a clutch lever or a hyd. up and down for the attachments?
The listing is here - https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/it ... 220378191/

67- 68 195 Hydralic lever on right side. Just made them two years. Descent old tractors but this one is priced in upper price range at least for me. They are getting harder to find.

They don't come up often around here and not in this shape. No idea about the price, but I've noticed price increases on all Case garden tractors in this area. I myself like the look of the bug eyed ones too.

Re: Case 195?
Seems the listing is already gone... The can relax now... and my retirement savings are safe for another day
- and I learned some new things about older Case tractors, Kinda glad I grabbed pics of it when I had the chance.

Re: Case 195?
I have CAD also, that’s why I own five. Some may say only five, that’s not so many! Two 600 series, two 400 series and one 200 series. They all have their own purpose. I did look at a 195 with handsome old Abe on the grill. I started to walk away from a deal because the owner had transplanted a Kohler twin in it and cut the frame to make the engine fit. Did a poor job of it too. He knew I wanted it, so as I told him I was going to pass on it he dropped the price to $500. That made me look it over a little closer, but couldn’t get passed the hack job on the frame. That’s enough ramble on that opportunity. Harry

Do I know that mixed feeling when you're kinda relieved it's gone but in the same time you kinda wish you got it? I do!RoamingGnome wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 2:15 pm Seems the listing is already gone... The can relax now... and my retirement savings are safe for another day

The diagnosis applies to me, CAD. Yep. Though I might be in recovery, as I've bought no tractors this year.

@RoamingGnome The hydraulic lift cylinder is right under the muffler in the pictures.

@Eugen Exactly - It's nice to be philosophical and say "guess it just wasn't meant to be..." ( and I'll be faster getting approval from the CFO next time )Eugen wrote: ↑Sat Feb 11, 2023 6:44 pmDo I know that mixed feeling when you're kinda relieved it's gone but in the same time you kinda wish you got it?

@MattA Thanks! I noticed it was a different arrangement for the lift cylinder than what's on my '84 446 - admittedly I haven't seen too many Colt/Case/Ingersoll tractors in person, and you can only get so much info from photos on the 'net
