I am trying to confirm the Model & year of this tractor, I think it is a 1972 Raider 12.

 

I want to know for sure before I drive 7 hours round trip to pick it up.

 

Thanks

You got it...paperwork says it is a 1972 Raider 12.  Model # 1-0311.  :)

I think you are right. 

 

72' Raider should have a K301 and an 8-speed 5073 trans.

Also, if that is the original transmission, and it probably is...the # 5073 transmission is a 10 pinion limited slip differential.  :)

Thanks guys for the info i have been out of touch for awhile, I haven't bought or sold any tractors for about two years. My wife had been sick with colon cancer.

 

She passed away September 26th, 2014 at the age of 54 and I am thinking about getting one to restore to keep me busy.

 

I believe this is one i will pursue, because it is the same tractor that started me with Wheel Horse. We have had a Raider 12 in the family since 1973.

Sorry for your loss.

A Wheel Horse to restore should keep you busy for a while.
