Prater 75 #1 Posted April 18, 2009 I had asked a few questions about a 64 model tractor, I picked it up today. Here are a few pics. I will post more later today... This is what I initially found But after searching the area, and finding the deck about 1.5 miles away this is what I have Can someone confirm the ID of this tractor please. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,128 #2 Posted April 18, 2009 It has a Briggs on it in the first picture but a Kohler in the rest of the pictures. Is the Kohler the original engine from that tractor? The serial number is very close to the one on my 854, so I'll go with 854 - unless you tell us that the Kohler is the original K-161. :drool: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prater 75 #3 Posted April 18, 2009 The 8hp Kohler is the original engine. The fuel pump went out so the PO tried to put on a different engine but failed to get it lined up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bell 11 #4 Posted April 18, 2009 Yep, 854... Nice score! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prater 75 #5 Posted April 18, 2009 There are a few things needed. I snapped a lot of pics. I know I need a carb and breather for the 8HP Kohler, a drive belt guard, pulley for the drive axle,clutch spring, seat, and steering wheel. I will also be looking for new decals later on when I start the restore. I will just be scrounging around for parts. Probably be this fall before I start work. Just starting to spray all the bolts with penetrating oil and filled the Kohler with Marvels Mystery Oil. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prater 75 #6 Posted April 18, 2009 The mower deck is in ok shape, the large cast iron part underneath is broken though... The Dozer blade was fine and everything is there and working. Only pic I took was of the serial number Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
