I'm guessing this is what was called the Jim Dandy before they changed the name in the early 70's to a 1612. I have no hands on experience with these smaller tractors but most guy like them and for mowing they are handier then the Power Kings. This model will have 16" rear tires and a 12 hp Kohler (if OEM engine) most had 48" decks, the lift system was manual unless the optional hyd system was adde also optional was the 3 pt hitch (CatO) and the dual transmission set up. Good stought tractors easy to work onI have a lead on a power King 1612 for $500. Any issues I should look out for? I know the larger power kings are well built.
Thank you, from the pictures I have seen I didn't see a deck for it.
