WH_Hobie 1 #1 Posted July 27, 2008 Eldon and I have worked out a deal. I am getting the 1968 Electro 12 from him. The previous owner was Karl, so I know were it came from that far back. Eldon is also throwing in a pair of concrete wheel weights. This is the first big block i will have owned in 3 years, and my first hydro ever B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suburban 550 28 #4 Posted July 29, 2008 Good luck with it Nick. When you made the deal you should have had Eldon work his majic with it. A nice shiny red paint job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WH_Hobie 1 #8 Posted August 7, 2008 Got home today and worked on the Electro. Dad and I did some wiring work, we also had to put a hub on it. Here is is an up to day picture with the ags: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,122 #9 Posted August 7, 2008 I like the AG's on it and it looks a lot better with those fog lights off the hood! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WH_Hobie 1 #10 Posted August 7, 2008 oh yeah, and by the way all the original lights are working on it but still need to fix the hinges on fender pan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WheelHorse_of_course 99 #13 Posted August 7, 2008 I guess that is not the original engine? IIRC the 68 should have a starter generator and magneto ignition. I can't see the coil to see if it has the early electronic ignition. And yes, I too the ags Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WH_Hobie 1 #14 Posted August 7, 2008 no its the original engine, Early 1968 had a starter/gen. and battery ignition Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,122 #15 Posted August 7, 2008 That is the correct engine for that tractor. It has a magneto ignition but no starter generator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,345 #16 Posted August 7, 2008 Didn't we cover this engine thing a few months ago? I think this was cover when Karl first post the pictures of it. Oh, yes, here it is: http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/index.php?...8&hl=electro+12 Now, back on topic, nice looking tractor, Nick. And those ags do look sharp!
