Dixon ZTR / maybe future crawler project?

A buddy gave me this.  The electric clutch wiring had been caught on something and ripped off, but the two red wires were enough for him to not know what to do.  The horizontal Kohler Command 16 for free is worth the price of admission!

Mrs. P grabbed a nice orange deck at the Portage auction in 2019... maybe that’ll slap right underneath!

I had a Dixon for quite a few years that was a lot of fun.  Ran well other than some pulley issues.  I just kept some spares on hand, so it wasn't that big of a deal breaker.

By the looks of that grass, attach a string trimmer and make a ride on weed whacker! :)
