My wife is going to kill me but I couldn't pass this up , 1982 1142 with a brand new deck and mule drive under it , PO said he couldn't get it to run and he was done messing with it , I figure what I paid for it the deck is worth the price , got it home and pulled the air filter and found it chewed up and full of a mouse nest , not sure if that is why it dosnt run or if there more going on , will find out tomorrow5658e46099c7b_20151142wheelhorse001.thum5658e49438929_20151142wheelhorse003.thum5658e4cb70c30_20151142wheelhorse004.thum5658e4fde7de4_20151142wheelhorse005.thum

It looks in pretty good shape. Nice fine. Tell the wife you have had it for a good while and just moved it so you could work it.

Very nice find! Great project too, the Stallion looks well. Just some TLC.

 

Found a Work Horse last year. Picked up the height adjust on eBay cheap. TSC seat and too much gray, belt guards Rustoleum Regal Red.

Well its now a runner and the tranny works great in all 8 gears , the inside of the carb was really bad and every jet was plugged , I think I need to clean it one more time and changed the filter again after I run it for a little while
