Tractor
1949 super A and mitsubishi 2 cyl diesel
I am needing to know the year what model and such this mitsubishi tractor is all I know is that it's a 2 cyl diesel and it came with a small bush hog is there any upgrades like turning the fuel timing up on these i'm making it into a pulling tractor. We have small tractor pulls where I live and yeah the girl friend is wanting to pull with it and such. I hope this picture goes through it wouldn't let me post on other places for some reason:confused2:

My guess would be a Satoh 370. The 372,373 and 470 have a different hood grille and nose piece than this one. Also the 2wd 372 has 3 lug front rims. I'm not sure the 370 had 5 lugs though, those hubs and wheels may not be original.

I dont have a clue but the more info you can give these guys, the better they can help.

Are their any numbers or markings? Serial number? More pics? etc.

Good luck with the pulling:thumbsup:

sorry for the late reply been trying to get ready for this tractor show/pull but here is her on it. The pulling one is almost completly apart so I'll post pic's of the build n such. I really need to find a seat that came on it because somebody made this one and didn't do a very good job at it. Any ideas on what it could be yet?
:dance1:

I'd say it looks like this old workhorse other than having loader/hoe attached and being 4wd.

Got to love that old Beaver. My newer tractor is more comfortable and more capable in some ways, but that old Beaver just keeps on working hard every time I wake him from slumber. Retired he is not.

Need a rock moved?

Or maybe that pile of debris in one trip?

Next week will be more firewood gathering and the grapple is great for that task.

I got a universal replacement seat from Tractor Supply that fits and works good. Somewhere around 60 bucks.

Thing on mine is pretty much the same way. I ought to consider replacing the current one, it's a bit worn.

If you're pulling against regular lawn-mowers you'll find this machine will do well due to the weight advantage. However, you probably won't be able to crank the horsepower up much with the stock engine unless you're going to sink some major coin into it with mods. Spinning the tires at the high rate of speed typically seen at tractor pulls will be difficult with the 15hp available (and stock gearing which would be very difficult/expensive to change in my opinion). The timing is already pretty advanced from the factory and there won't be much to gain there. I don't want to rain on the parade, just want to point out the realities of getting to where I think you're heading. Again though, I think it will pull well as-is, just won't be the big "crowd-pleaser" with all the smoke, flash, and dirt slinging everybody is looking for.
