It has a Peerless 2300 for sure. Those things are tanks. Very similar to the 633a that Sears GTs have, will make a great puller.

I'm digging that. If I had it I would throw some mud tires on it and speed it up. I'd even leave the body like it is, it looks sick like that.

Please take it to a PM guys.. Thanks.

That thing is perfect material for a offroader. What kind of trails do you have? Id suggest some bumpers, rear atv tires, faster pulleys. Leave the rust! Looks killer

I wouldn't restore it i would just clean it up and repaint the rustiest things so it doesn't rust any further.

No paint!, let it bake in the sun to really dry the metal up. then use wax and polish it! Then lower it or mod it to suit your needs  Very Happy
