Thanks for watching!!!. My father got an old DPW/Highway Department 1600 at a town auction many years ago, that my brother now has. I see a lot of the old Japanese built Fords around here, still in use 30-40 years later.
I grew up on a 1979 1700 4x4 with the Ford 770 loader. I'm an LS owner now, and I love it, but I will always love the 1700 more! Best little tractor ever! Plus that 2 cylinder, 2 stroke diesel sound can't be beat!
Great compact tractor. They're increasing in value since they're a robust simple design and easy to work on and maintain. It sounds like it needs the valve clearances adjusting.
