Serial# 4099
This is my new to me Electric tractor.
EGT200 came with rear discharge mower deck and snow blower.
Plan on restoring this one to as close to new working tractor.
Anybody know when this one was made?

1st pic the right one is mine.

I can't help at all with the DOM, but just wanna say that machine sure looks to be in good shape!

Doug , this where documentation gets relly fuzzy. According to records only 4000 or so were transferred to Avco NI  between April 1974 and late 1975.    One year window.

So it's a 74 or most likely a 75?

[Sparky]

Yes.  Ge transferred stock to be remade but also some wiring harnesses etc may have been done by NI

Was there a 3 point hitch for these or just the sleeve hitch?

[Sparky]

I have never seen reference to 3 pt hitch . Sleeve hitch standard.  However retrofits have been with us a long time .

Do you have a picture or info on factory wheel weights?

[Sparky]

This is where I am at a loss for info. Myelec-traks.com on publications listing has best listing.  When on this site you can contact it's owner and he is a very helpful person.

Congrats on the new tractor. I would like to see and hear one in action some day. The silence must be deafening!!

[DH1]

That site is full on info and is a sticky in the GE Forum here.

My avatar pic is that of a New Idea EGT 120 that my father bought new and is no longer in existence . Just a minor regret ....

Congrats on landing that one finally Doug.  They are a very fun tractor.  Enjoy yours.  Glad you got a blower too.

I asked before on another thread about paint and found out that the orange is Bittersweet.
Rustolem#559 or H-25

But what about the white parts, are the wheels and white panels the same, or are the wheels white and the rest off white?
Anybody know?

[Sparky]

Doug - Mark Frerking seems to be the one to ask . White is only on hood of body in addition to wheels. If you choose wrong - well redo not serious. Wrong answer for true restorer.
