Colt Case Ingersoll Garden Tractors

Well I’m ready, but still have to get the Case 446 with loader home here yet. It’s at my son’s place. Boy it’s gunna be a tight squeeze to get around in the garage this winter.

short answer NOooooooooo I am not . But good on you Noel for getting the jump on it I will make sure I tell the weather man to send it your way first giving the rest u=of us time to get ready .

Nice collection Noel. How often do you run all the tractors?

I am ready because I have a dedicated machine for moving snow, the 446 with caster. I have a blade I could put on the 444, which I have before but hardly ever used it. Noel, I agree with you looks like tight a tight space. That’s a good problem to have. Harry

I try to start them all once a month. And a 2 amp battery charge once or twice a year on the ones that don’t get used much.
So the winter stored tractors set all winter with no starting. Battery’s are takin out, stored in my garage, on wood and charged at 2 amps, mid winter then again before spring start up.
Now, that doesn’t happen exactly like that all the time for both paragraphs, but I try to do that Matt.

I’m like you Harry. I mostly have two tractors with the throwers on all year. The ford with the cab. And the 1970 John Deere.
Ifffff, it was not so busy around the places, I do have mowing decks for those two tractors that could be fun to put the decks on and use them to cut grass. But you need the time to install, uninstall the decks and clean them. Just don’t seem to have the extra time to do those fun things.
