Can you help me determine the year and estimated value of another one of my husband's Wheel Horses?  (I couldn't have sold his GT-14 without you and so appreciate your help on that one.)

I found where the serial and model numbers are located on the tractor but they are not readable. The serial number is something like 010008301. Probably not too helpful.

I have attached some pictures. Not sure if it runs.  It has been stored a long time - as you can tell by the pictures.

Thanks!

The 1970 Raider 12 was equipped with a Tecumseh engine and an 8 speed transmission as your is. All others had Kohler (according to the Wheel Horse Master Products List).

ID number would be 1-6253

Considering the fact that you don't know if it runs, plus it has been modified and is missing parts, as well as having a Tecumseh engine, I would not pay more than $100 to $150.00.  Accessories would add a little more to a package deal.

Looks just like my '68 Raider 12. A classic, a project too. Good luck if you pick it up,

Rmaynard and Tankman -

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond, and rmaynard, especially with all the details you gave me. 

It is unbelievable how much you guys on this forum know about Wheel Horses.

Appreciate it!

      Raider 12 replacement battery winter
      By mmmmmdonuts
      My cheap-o walmart U1 battery is starting to bite the dust again (barely able to crank it over fully charged, and ozzing everywhere) after 3 years on my 68' Raider and I am looking into a new battery for winter as I now have a plow setup. I was thinking of either getting the original 22NF battery that came with it or running a mazda mita battery which is a U1 size. Is the AGM worth the extra money over the 22nF even in the smaller size? I think the vibrations keep killing the cheapo batteries and I am trying to make sure I can leave it out in the cold and not have a problem starting in the winter. It does get down to 0F or below zero every once in a while. I don't think I want to go all the way to a 22nF AGM as it is $200. 
       
      Thoughts?

      when are new piston rings enough?
      By ohiofarmer
      I am picking away at the k series on the raider10. Basically the Piston blew through at the ring grooves as it appears the rings may have had too large a gap. I can feel a slight erosion of the bore where the ring gaps All lined up, but not even close to catching a finger nail.
      I am hoping just hoping out the bore will get it back to round close enough that a ring job will do .
      In any case I can measure the bore and report back. Discipline demands that I do not tear this engine down right now as too many things are taking up my time.
      Just hoping the gurus can offer a bit of guidance

      10 pinion axle gear failure
      By davidtmercer
      Just recently had a 10 pinion differential axle gears lose their teeth as shown in this picture from a post in 2014.  
      Was wondering if others have had this happen and if they determined the root cause and corrective actions.
      I am considering replacing the two axle gears and five pinions that were destroyed but did not want the same thing to happen again.
      I assume the failure was due to a worn cylindrical spring that I also plan to replace.

      Charger and Raider LSD
      By 12 hp Kohler
      Been looking at a lot or Raiders and Chargers lately and was wondering if they all have LSD? I know most of them did but I was wondering if some of the later models might have had the Uni drives instead ? 
       
       
       
      Thanks, Robbie.
