Pullstart 63,054 #1 Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) This is listed as a 1965. I see many clues telling me it’s not... such as a 300+ series muffler, front and mid mount tach-a-matics, 8 speed transmission, (did the 65 model have that headlight lens?), larger PTO bell and belt guard, etc. what would you attempt to label it as? B and C-80 is gear starter, correct? Did the Charger/Bronco come with any of these features? Edited March 26, 2020 by T-Mo Revise Title per the OP 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Tuul Crib 7,337 #2 Posted December 5, 2019 It's a good looking tractor all around. But I think 65 they didn't have foot boards and front headlights in the hood. The foot rest are the stirrup kind. Looks like a long frame 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 49,098 #6 Posted December 5, 2019 Looks like there is a tag under the dash for a PI. I'm thinkin modded Raider too would have to be a very early Raider with the SG but then should have a metal tank. 6" fronts?? they look small something off on the headlight lens cigar lighter there 1 hour ago, The Tool Crib said: 65 they didn't have foot boards and front headlights in the hood. possible mods??

It is a MUT, they probably were referring to the 65 different models parts were taken from. We all know that you are such a purest.

Pullstart 63,054 #10 Posted December 5, 2019 @953 nut you know me so well.... And for the record, the last bathroom project took 686 days, approximately. I’m not sure if Excel can be off or not... so I’m right on par! 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stepney 2,325 #12 Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) I'm going with a very early model Raider 12. I've seen then with a gen-start engine before. (Thought this technically ended with the 1967 models). I can see the unused hood stand and 3 bolts holding the front hitch on. Nicely upgraded but clearly not correct. Plastic tank is interesting.. I'd go with a Raider 12 for sure. If the motor isn't original, it'd still be a Raider regardless. Edited December 5, 2019 by Stepney Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 49,098 #13 Posted December 5, 2019 Yes technically SG's were gone in 68. Keeping true to form tho WH may have had some motors they needed to use up on the early Raiders. Waste not want not I guess. Let us know when you get back with it Kev right up yer alley. . Lots of parts there to make an orginal ...Yeah Richard...Pullstart owning an orginal!?!?? 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 63,054 #17 Posted December 10, 2019 Well, the guy has had 5 people no-show on him and that’s just not very nice! He’s had it for 10 years and though it’s been sitting about a month, he’s confident that it’ll fire up cold tomorrow. It’s a 12 horse and “other than the seat, it’s all original”... We shall see. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
