bbvetto 69 #1 Posted September 26, 2019 Just picked up this 312-8 with newer? replacement Kohler 301............$450.00 Engine starts and runs perfectly. Had a Wheel Horse in the 70's, always wanted another one. Going to do a complete down to the frame restoration, so glad I found this website. 8 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZXT 2,401 #2 Posted September 26, 2019 (edited) Heck of a deal! That'll make a good little tractor for you. Are those 6" front wheels? Not a bad lookin' 66 Impala either! 327? You've come to the right place for info on it. Keep us updated on the restoration process! Edited September 26, 2019 by ZXT 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
