In July my wife found a GT on CL and asked me about it. I told here that it needed some work but the price was good and it is one that I would love to own. She just said, let's go get it, so I contacted the fellow and made the deal.
The tractor is a D-160, 1974 model with the k-341 Kohler. Turns out the owner had the engine blow a hole in the side of the block the size of a grapefruit. I got a front snow blade, Onan B series, and some other odds and ends in the package. Turns out that someone had dropped something down the intake on the Onan and beat one of the Pistons up. I found another fellow that had a good K-341 in another GT that he was selling so I grabbed it.
The deck needed some repairs and the three points had been removed but I built what I needed for the three point and repaired the deck. Slowly cleaned and repainted as I went and now it runs great again.
