Docwheelhorse 2,560 #1 Posted February 23, 2023 (edited) Hello all, hope I am able to use one of my passes / favors to remain in the Wheel Horse group. It actually is @Sparky fault for seeing it and sending me link. So kick him out instead (lol) Long story short---my second tractor love is the Sears Ropers and the versions powered by Briggs and Stratton. This 1972 Suburban 15 popped up and I bought it after having had another and getting rid of it--why I don't know. The one I had was the SS15 which is considered deluxe with full running boards that touch rear fenders and rubber pedal covers / other trinkets. This one being a standard "Suburban 15" is much like what a Work Horse is in the Wheel Horse line. Clean, clean, clean and I had to buy it. Forgive me Everyone espescialy @Wild Bill in VA Edited February 23, 2023 by Docwheelhorse Spell fix 11 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 46,797 #4 Posted February 23, 2023 I like it Doc. I had one for a short time. 10 HP with a techy flavor. Interesting exhaust on yours. New guy here @'67Craftsman's might enjoy this. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 59,733 #5 Posted February 23, 2023 Nice tractor and nice wheel weights! I drug one of those home a couple miles (literally hanging 2” off the ground strapped up to my tailgate!) just to harvest the fenders and wheel weights off it. They were stacked 2 deep on each side and the best part, it was free! I ended up listing it for sale for $50 and when an interested guy stopped to look at it, I gave it to him. I just didn’t want it scrapped 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

case442 130 #9 Posted February 24, 2023 Wow, very nice original machine. 15hp Briggs. Hows it run? That can’t have much use on it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for tagging me WHX, I do enjoy it cause it's a Sears and that is my first love and what I have right now in my shed, BUT in my opinion that grill is just ugly.
