Plans:
All new wiring (or lack of)

A motor (15 hp briggs ohv)

A new front spindle and carrier hat only holds one wheel
like some if the fullsize farm tractors

removing the old front axle which i so stupidly welded in place

removing all of the old steering

New Exhaust (muffled stack)

all new steering

new seat

and a ton of other random mods to make it pull anything better.

also, any suggestions would be welcomed LOL

and I would like to make a custom hood...

OHV huh? Going to run the steering straight out over the hood with bevel gear drive out front like some of the old tractors? Not sure which brands did that, but I've seen them that way.
