Desko 608 #1 Posted February 27, 2014 Hi all! I'm sorta new to this site I have been here for about a month. I guess I'll introduced my self. My name is Ryan and I'm 15. I caught the wheel horse fever when I got my first wheel-work horse lt-1637. I am currently restoring my grandfathers GT-1142 he had bought it new in 83 from the wheel horse dealership I personally never knew as he passed before I was born. This tractor is going to be my senior project. I am going to keep this tractor as original as possible other than the motor that will be swapped out as the 11 hp Briggs blew because of low oil from my brother not checking it it will be swapped out for a 20 hp onan. That al I really have to say 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 55,003 #8 Posted February 28, 2014 Ryan. Always like to hear about younger addicts joining the group. Too bad you grandfather isn't with you, but he will be with you in spirit as you restore his GT. If you want to attach a photo or two just click on the "more Reply Optoins" tab at the lower right of the Reply page, this will let you add an attachment. May need to reduce the size to post it.
