Mike'sHorseBarn 2,998 #1 Posted October 22 1067 that was cheap and 15 minutes from home last night after work. Gonna use the weights and maybe part the rest out or pass it on to someone who wants to do something with it.. Electrically it's a mess. Thoughts anyone? 3 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,393 #2 Posted October 22 Neat rig. Lots of possibilities. Good six speed has value. If you rewire just rip ALL the wires out and start new. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,051 #6 Posted October 22 Can't be that bad. I don't see any wire nuts hanging out of it! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike'sHorseBarn 2,998 #7 Posted October 22 Looks like someone had charging issues amd said screw it. Fried voltage regulator, new starter genny, after market volt meter. Sketchy wiring. Might not take much beyond an expensive key switch, a regulator and new wiring. Has a very leaky axle seal too. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 27,562 #8 Posted October 22 (edited) Looks very savable to me. Hope you can find someone to pass it on to. Edited October 22 by Achto 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,813 #10 Posted October 23 I'd take it for what you got into it Mike ... in other words you got free weights. You know a 1067/1267is my cupotea... That steering wheel is my fav and hard to believe it's original and in that nice of shape. Bet it is tho. Yup obviously someone is electrically challenged ... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Wrencher 5,450 #13 Posted October 23 (edited) Mike the wiring is a simple on these old Start/Gen`s. Just take your time with it. Look in the manual section for this tractor it has a diagram. May just clean it all up and put the right decal on the hood. And it will be a great worker. I had this one this year went tru it front to back. Down the road it went.

WHX?? 48,813 #14 Posted October 23 (edited) Thats what I'm talking about right there Wrencher! Patina & character to die for! I'm thinkin a later Charger 12 sacrificed it's motor, hood and floorboards for it Mike. The fun part would be to take the side cutters to all that BS wiring and do it right! If I'm not mistaken ther was a service bulletin obsoleting that steering wheel and replacing it with the one like on Wrencher's and used on subsequent Raiders and many others.
