Achto 29,405 #1 Posted March 31, 2016 Made an agreement on this 867 in Sept. The owner had it on the west side of the state and insisted on delivering it to me when he got time. It's been a long wait but it finally arrived today. I sure hope it gets along with the rest of my small herd. 22 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 29,405 #5 Posted March 31, 2016 It's missing a few parts and has some bumps & bruises, but I did get it running by spraying gas in the carb. Plan on getting it to run on its own so I can see what else it might need mechanically. After that it will be tear it down and get it back to it's original glory 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
