Shynon 7,470 #1 Posted March 23, 2015 Current restore is a 704, traded for this tractor from Prondzy (my son) he picked this up in Iowa from a Redsquare member. It was all in a box when Prondzy received it. To date complete motor overhaul, need fuel pump rebuild. Trans has all new bearings and a few new gears. Have purchased all new stainless hardware, decals. finishing up paint work then final assembly and bring this beauty back to life. Can't wait to hear that Kohler sing. Enjoy Thanks for looking Tom 17 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shynon 7,470 #9 Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) Final update on this project of which I am dedicating to my father he and my mother brought me into this world in 1964 and he left us on 9-29-14. I have always like the hood stand on the 64's and since I did not have a serial number for this one I made my own 92914 this tractor will always be close to my heart, this one is to date the best one I have restored. Dad if you are looking I hope you like this one. Will be taking this one to Pioneer Power this year and every year, as my father had come down to see us for the years I have been going, he loved to people watch and spend some time with the Wheel Horse faithful. Thanks Guys Enjoy and thanks for looking Edited April 12, 2015 by Shynon 20 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,297 #10 Posted April 12, 2015 Outstanding job Shynon. I'm sure your Dad is smiling looking down at the love you put in it. I want to find a 704 myself. The first Wheel Horse my Dad bought was a Suburban 400 in 1960 when I was five years old. I stumbled onto one about a year ago and I'm in the process of rebuilding it now. The second Wheel Horse he bought was a 704. Exactly why I want to find one to fix up. The memories are priceless. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,638 #12 Posted April 12, 2015 Very nice. I grew up on a 604. I knew I wanted another but didn't want a Tecky. The next closest thing, a 704 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shynon 7,470 #19 Posted August 22, 2015 I think I still had something missing, so I contacted the folks at the Badge Factory and they sent me this the other day. I think I can finally say I am done with this one. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
