I got this tractor a few weeks ago. Saw it on the forum and Michelle and I picked it up.
The tractor is self was in pretty decent shape except the hood. I did get a new flywheel from another forum member and converted the Wisconsin s7d for battery ignition. I had it running on starting fluid and today Im waiting for the fresh gas tank sealer to cure. It shoud be running and drive soon.

There was a Dane I was looking at in Tennessee.....

But I don't recall a reason to go to Kentucky, but if there is, we can take the van and fill it up with pups from the kill-shelters down there.

He actually has two tractors with stacks, so this one definitely won't get one.
