New owner of a Sunshine L1-26R

[Wally L1R]

Hello everyone,

New to tractors and just picked up a sunshine L1-26R. I would like to find an operating manual and parts manual for this tractor and also like to know the closest american version. Looking through the forum it seems like either the L2850 or L2600. Thanks for any help and look forward to being part of the orange tractor family.

Do you have a L1-26 or an L1-R26?
If it is a L1-R26 please post some pictures as they are very rare, and go read this article, by our very own Service Dept Vic.

It will answer a lot of questions.

As far as parts manual and operating manuals, I think you might be out of luck.

It is the L1-R26.
If I figured it out there should be two images attached.

Wally - you're screwed.

If you pay me $500 and ship it to upstate New Yorkistan, I will take it off your hands, and you better do it quick!

Just kidding, of course!

You will have challenges associated with a rare gray market, but you should enjoy it. Looks like a GREAT tractor!

There's some guys here that know more about the gray machines than most folks. I'm sure you'll find guidance along the way!

I own a 1953 Minneapolis Moline. While popular in the mid-west, not much for them around here. I'm okay with that....
