I have a 1969 Charger V8 that I bought in 1976. It came with the snow thrower attachment (and mower deck) and had been run hard. The cylinder was deeply scored, honed it, new rings, valve job and I use it for everything. Big lawn, hauling firewood through the woods with the loaded cart uphill etc. Motor runs great. Very strong and tractor rarely needs fixing. I've worked the hell out of it but keep it indoors and the oil changed.

I just acquired one myself. Runs like a top.
Front wheel bushings Wheel Horse part number 100166. Stens and others have them also, different part numbers
We have the same one at the salvage yard. No spark though. I think it needs a pickup coil.
