camryn 2 #1 Posted October 1, 2012 Hi, I just acquired what I was told is a Model 800, year 1970. I'm looking to see if anyone can verify the model, and also looking for the correct dash decals/plate for it. I attached some pictures of the tractor. Thanks for the help!

JimD 3,345 #2 Posted October 1, 2012 Here's a link to another thread on the forum with a good enlargeable picture and some good information about your 800.... hope this helps.. Well it appears there are other 800 models I forgot about,, and you don't really say which you have, the Commando 800 or the 800 Auto. Here's a pic of the 800 Auto... http://www.google.co....r:0,s:0,i:77 As mentioned in the other thread you will need the model number off the tag for accurate identification.

jay in nc 209 #3 Posted October 2, 2012 i don't think it's a commando800. briggs engine 12 in. rear tires. commando 800 should have kohler k181 & 10 in. rear tires & 6 in. front tires. maybe it's a workhorse 800 with a briggs swap. anyone mor versed than me want to guess? anyway nice tractor,be happy!

rmaynard 14,888 #4 Posted October 2, 2012 (edited) I'd say it's a 1971 800 Special with some modifications? Edited October 2, 2012 by rmaynard 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Callen 64 #5 Posted October 3, 2012 I think it's a '71 800 special. The extra framing is to mount the Peerlis transmission that this model uses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
