This is what I picked up the other day. I've tried to download them to this site but to no avail. I got a pretty good deal on this and am kinda wondering what the value of this is in this shape. It does turn and has compression but will need some work to run. It came from the original owners son who inherited it. Obvious repaint at one point and no idea why they used the 70 stickers instead of the correct ones.
Kohler K161S and serial # 7212

thanks, Joe :American Flag 1:

Nice original

Congrats on the O Joe!:beerchug:

That's a nice "O" you've found there! I wouldn't be concerned about the $$$$, I'd be keep'n it and my only worry would be finding a place "inside" to keep in! Very Nice!

I like your O-70. :biggrin2:

nice o joe:beerchug:

Nice find on your O!

yes they are like orphans... I now have a 100 rear tru power ags and soon to have front tri ribs, 1450 with ags all around and a stack ( currently getting a working repaint), 1250 that's supposedly getting sold pending his arrival and now the Original. I also have a Simplicity Broadmoor 707 pull start.

Congrats on your Original! Is the hole for the dash tower a factory or PO drill hole? I'm talking about the one on the side that lets you access the cam follower. it shouldn't have the hole there from the factory.:bigthink: What's the front axle looks like? Thin axle?:bigthink:

You should see it in person guys early 4 digit collered spindles big battery box very low on pi mods. Real solid machine... Wish I could run into a deal like that. Did you get the carb figured out yet Joe?
