Bens vintage tractors 1,542 #1 Posted September 28, 2022 So I decided to build a show cruiser/ rat rod before heading to zagray and Steve Bo’s. started out as a raider 12 with electric lift, parted it out due to the engine being blown. converted it to the older style 1267 tins. pulley swapped it and added Vins little mikes old exhaust. This machine is getting a Honda for now but down the road I’d like to get a k361 18hp kohler. 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bens vintage tractors 1,542 #6 Posted September 29, 2022 Just like that it’s done and ready for zagray. I have a foot throttle on the way for Steve’s ride. Spent a good couple hours getting the engine situated so I didn’t have to cut the hood. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
