Wildhorse 298 #1 Posted July 11, 2018 Rebuilt an old K181 and replaced the Tecumseh H60 on 655. Rebuilt original diaphragm fuel pump also. Put a nos Nelson muffler on although not original I like the look and sound. Purrs like a kitten. Added some Harley rear bullet lights and nos tractor headlights. Not original but I like the way they look. Rebuilt starter generator and new regulator put on. New condenser and points. 6 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used a pair of nos Pathfinder sealed beam tractor lights. I'll get more pics as soon as I can for you. I fabricated a couple brackets for them out of 1/8" flat stock mounted to existing holes in frame. Had to paint them red of course 😊 Edited July 11, 2018 by Wildhorse 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got them from an old farm feed and machinery store in town a few years ago. They closed up after over a 100 years in business. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike'sHorseBarn 3,036 #9 Posted July 11, 2018 Don't you hate to see businesses like that go under? I'm looking for a set of lights like that. They have a vintage look to them. Want to put some on a panzer I'm working on right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Progress is what some say, I say it's the end of a great era when people knew each other in town and were civil to each other with common goals. Nothing like a walk down Main St. and being able to chat with anybody in a friendly manner. Try eBay maybe for some vintage lights, I see them on there too. These were actually in original box on shelf from the 60's. Hard to believe they sat on shelf that long in store. I loved going in and just chatting with the older gentleman and hearing stories about the history of town. A rail line used to run right in back of store during the steam era, tracks are still there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
