MTD 760/960 Garden Tractor

New Tractor Project. I am thinking it is an MTD 760 or 960, not sure. I apologize for the shaky camera work.

I love the old cast iron briggs and stratt engines gotta love being able to change the cylinder

The engine is 12 HP, which means you have an 860 series ranging in the years 1967-1972. The 760 would have a 10 HP (243431) engine, whereas the 960 (first year: 1970) would have a 14 (1970-71), 15 (1972) or 16 HP (1973-75) engine.

this is how I found the channel. because I bought an MTD 990 for $100 and put it on 35's. and I was curious about how the 970 had a cluch and drive shaft and peerless 2300 all at same time

The 3pt hitch was on the next size up garden tractor. It to bad MTD has gone so down hill.
