2005 John Deere L110 Pt1: What Do We NEED to Fix?

My recent lawn tractor shopping has come to an end. My father purchased a new zero-turn Ariens mower and has passed to me his mid-2002s John Deere L110 lawn tractor.
Let's give the tractor a good look over before tearing into the few minor maintenance tasks it requires.
Thanks for stopping by.
