i967mustang 21 #4 Posted October 15, 2013 Chrome tip is actually a part of a Harley pipe and I bent the polished stainless for a chrome look battery box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

userj8670 68 #8 Posted October 15, 2013 How do those 16hp Kohlers compare to the 12s in terms of power? Just curious if its that noticable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,701 #9 Posted October 15, 2013 I am digging this blue...nice shade and nice horses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
i967mustang 21 #10 Posted October 15, 2013 The 16 is a lot stronger then the 12 but doesn't run quite as smooth. My favorite is probably the 14, it still runs really smooth and has almost the same power as the 16. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Wrencher 5,440 #14 Posted October 19, 2013 Does the blue match the 67 stang ???? nice tractors... I am a Ford Guy man. Gary B..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
i967mustang 21 #15 Posted October 20, 2013 The 16 HP engine vibrates a little more than the smaller engines. Prices on them vary depending where you are. The Blue doesn't match the 67 stang, that one was silver. I don't have it anymore but still use the name most places I sign up at. I now have a Blue 68 convertible, 1978 Mustang II with a worked 302, a 1978 Mustang IIi King Cobra in white with orange stripes and a 1995 silver Boss Shinoda convertible. Then for the daily drivers we have a 2002 Explorer for the wife with a New engine, and rebuilt trans. and my driver is a 2000 F150 4x4 with a 4.6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
