Dator for sale (well kind of!!!)

Post by monte44 »

I found what I think is a dator. I know a lot about deeres but not much about dators so bear with me. First off there is no ser. number at all on tunnel. The owner I got it from told me he wrecked it and put a parts replacement tunnel on it. The way it looks to me is that the tunnel and belly pan were both replaced because they are both super nice no dents. Do have the dator hood but it is busted up. Track and rear susp are in good shape. Wrong seat,pipes are rusted out. Sled is mostly apart. I KNOW FOR SURE IT IS A DATOR ENGINE KEC340RS-24LC. The jug is off of engine because he said he burned it down right after he replaced the tunnel then left it sit. Crankcase was filled with oil so I am pretty sure the crank is fine. It turns very smoothly. Do have the carbs and airbox. I have the original dator cover but in tough shape and a NOS set of .10 over pistons and rings for the engine. The bottom line is good engine and great parts dator. If anyone wants to come look at it and help me shed light on this Please feel free to give me a call and come look. I'm not into dators. I can email pictures. Asking $1800 OBO I am ALWAYS willing to trade for 295/S or 84 LF.
