:text-welcomeconfetti: I'll leave the identifying to more experienced horsemen than myself.   Looks like a nice little "nut roaster" to me though!

Welcome!  Others will tell you everything about it but for now I will just admire it.  Nice catch!  Both the tractor and the inevitable Wheel Horse fever that will come with it!

Looks like a 56 for sure, if that's the original hood it's probably a later 56 RJ35 that originally came

with a Clinton 1200 more than likely and won't be a RJ25 since the RJ25 did not have a hole for the gas cap since it was mounted to the engine. The engine looks like the type used but hard to know for sure if it's original. What does the back of the hood look like?....small hole for kill switch or larger hole? I just recently finished restoring my 1955 RJ25 and did a lot of research and studying on it and there is little to no facts and info on the RJ25....so all of this is my opinion. What is your plans with it?

Thanks for the info Clay. I was thinking it was an RJ-25 because of the Model 8 engine. The engine is type #: 107133 and serial #: 74997L.  I am attaching a pic of the back of the hood. 

 

I basically bought it because it looked so darn cool. I thought it would be fun for me and the kids to putter around in. Maybe put a wagon on the back or actually find a mowing deck and put her back to work!

:text-coolphotos:             With parts that can be bolted on there is no telling what was done by previous owners, the important thing is that you like it, very nice early RJ!  :WRS:
