One of the back burnered ones.

I picked up a couple parts frames from a buddy q while back and used the best parts.
Then when I went to pick up the SS14 roller from another buddy I picked more parts. Spindles,front axle,tie rod,drag link,a 604 belt guard and a few other parts and pieces.
I set it together enough to be able to roll it around and pushed it to the back of the shed.
It's a one piece at a time round hood.
Too many other things going on to mess with it right now,its theres now when I finally get around to messing with it.

Rick, looks like a pretty straight 604 from what I can see. Would be a real worker with a 10-12 Kohler on it.

Brian,I'm not Rick and that's not a 604.

Is it a Franken-something . . . or original?

Looks like a fun project, lately I have been really getting into these older wheel horses the 61 to 64 round hoods, it's actually nice being able to find parts easily for a change.

The first post explains it.

what's the plan for power? I picked a steering /consol section off an 854. I am kinda thinking the same way to make a build around with my spare wh parts

I really don't know. It's no where near the head of the priority list. I won't cut up the vintage metal to fit anything. I would love to go cast iron with a K181 because well I'm a cast iron nut. Those engines are at the heart of the vintage GT hobby. On the other had a if a 8 or 10 aluminum Briggs comes along. I might go that route. I do have a few aluminum Briggs around here.
I would like to have gear drive electric start.
I will know when I get to it I guess.
