I am a newbie to the whole tractor game. I have a 1975 Cub Cadet with a blown Kohler K301 that I plan on rebuilding. That will probably be a total rebuild, engine, transmission, paint the frame and redecal to make it look brandy-new. It is for my VT property, mainly to mow the lawn and clear the access road.
Yesterday I picked up (for free!) a 1964 WheelHorse 854 with a Kohler K181S that the owner told me was in running condition. I plan on giving it an oil-change and cleaning out the fuel tank this weekend and seeing how it runs. It is rusty, so I plan on taking it apart and painting at least the hood and fenders, if not the frame and everything. It depends on how well the engine runs on whether or not I am rebuilding it. Still haven't decided about the transmission.
Otherwise, just here to introduce myself.
