This popped up on marketplace daily pics, after a few messages, I put in for a PA day from work and off we went on a 9 hour round trip drive up near Flint, Michigan. Super clean G174, only issue beyond dry cracked tires is the VR isnt work and it pushes near 17 volts unless you leave the lights on to draw it down. So need to find a VR for it. I will run the front tires till they give up. Then hunt down the rice & cane deep hooked lug style for it again. Rears are not nearly as dry rotted. Paint shines, starts quickly and easily. I do wish the muffler could be turned up right, but this is the 2 cylinder model with individual pipes from the head to the muffler, not a cast manifold like on the triples. Couldnt find anything reasonable that wasnt beat to death or shading looking in my area. Now I can work on getting one of our two diesel cub cadets ready to get sold, the red one behind the Iseki will be staying.
