It has been very quiet on here so i thought i would post some pictures of my collection and project mowers over the last two years.

Here is a little clip of a 1979 lawn boy model 8238 AE that i just finished.

Here is the charger that goes with it. I got one of these exact 8238ae models that actually had the charger and rear bag for $10 for everything!

I use a little bit bigger hammer on the Murray. This one is going to the scrap yard. So it will get several revenge whacks.

I haven't posted many pictures in the last few years, and i synced my phone so the pics are on the computer now. I found this beauty a few years ago. This one is all original and has not been restored. needless to say it will never be for sale and is now in the collection. I got it for $30...

Hey gearnoggin here is a video of my 1987 8243AE. This is all original on the machine and if i had to guess its in the 50-70 hrs range. It was in the trash in Kansas City and a guy pulled it out of the trash and sold it to me for $30. A $45 battery and a carb clean this is the result!

1987 8243AE that i drove to Kansas City to get. The yellow was a promo model i picked up from the same dude, but i sold it because it wasn't my thing and i sold it to a very worthy buyer that mowed commercially with one in the 80's and did not have the know how to fix it once the carb got dirty...

I am posting some pictures of a rare electric start f series steel deck that I refurbished . I just mowed my lawn with it and it runs amazing and starts easy with the electric start.

Well I drove 4.5 hours to get some lawn boys! Probably too far but I just had to with the promo involved! The 8343AE is like new and runs amazing! I also picked up another 10323 and a 10301 while I was there to make the trip worth it. I will sell those to pay for the trip. Enjoy the photos!

Well I finished the 8461 commercial. I have attached the pictures. Enjoy!

I just thought I would post some pictures of my 8461 commercial restoration for you Guys to view. The new commercial ball bearing wheels are on their way.

Hi all! I haven't posted in a while. I have been extremely busy mowing and fixing up lawn boys. I just thought I would post a pic of a couple of mowers that will be added to my collection. I plan to do a full restore on the commercial, and the 10550 is in immaculate condition. The self propelled...

The brass screw looking thing on the left side of the carb is it.

Hey guys! i need to ship a lawn boy and i was wondering how you guys ship them and keep the price down. I see people shipping them for 75-90 dollars all day long. I got a quote from UPS for 220 dollars today. I don't want to pay that much so i would appreciate the input and tips. thanks!

Well I got this mower off eBay two weeks ago and it has been a chore! There was slop in the bearings so I cracked it open and put in new bearings and crank seals and cleaned the piston and exhaust ports. I cleaned and reinstalled the rod bearings and degreased the whole engine and RTV sealed the...

I bought a 8241AE over the weekend. The carb was super varnished from sitting i don't know how long. Once i got it cleaned i attached a cup starter and rope to the top and it started on the 1st pull. I let it run for 10 min and the mower died all the sudden. I checked for spark and it had none...

I had tried everything to my 10424 to quit surging and it still wanted to surge after three carb cleanings. Today as a last resort i changed the throttle plate to the one with a larger hole and still surging. Then i got Briggs part number 801308 and replaced the pilot jet. When i started that...

Here are my commercials. I did not have a good picture of the M series so I added the collection photo. The 8401 has brand new wheels now and All I have to do now is a little rust removal and some son of a gun. The 6461's are both fully restored. I will get a better pic of the M commercial and...

Got two new mowers yesterday. They both have F motors on them and they both run perfect. The scamp needed a brake cable and a new carb vane. I am not familiar with the scamp mowers and the model and serial are rubbed off this mower so I would appreciate it if someone could tell me what model #...

I also got this one yesterday and it runs great after a carb clean and living the blade brake bail cable! Cleaned it up and degreased and a little son of a gun and this is the result!

I found a brand new 10227 on Craigslist today! The only thing it needs is a primer bulb that was rotted off in the box. It has been gassed to check it out and it runs perfect! He has one more in his shed still in the box that I am trying to get him to sell!

This is the only time John Deere has had a good idea!:laughing: The one and only Lawn Boy F BBC engine with John Deere Decals. To all you John Deere lovers out there I rest my case! Used 2 Cycle Engine for John Deere 12PB Push Mower | eBay

Well this Lawn Boy purchasing is getting crazy! I could not resist this baby for $100 dollars! It runs tremendous and cuts like a dream! I have some new orange wheels coming next week! Enjoy the pics!

Well it's been another lawn boy adventure! I got the mower going on thurs last week but it started running funny like it it had internal problems. So I disassembled the whole motor and the needle bearings on the crank and push rod were really sloppy and was missing one so it only had 31 instead...

Well i added a 1987 8243AE. It starts and runs great with the top start off one of my other late model F's. I purchased a new battery and charger and got it today. i tried to start it with the electric start and it will not fire off after several seconds of cranking with the key. i checked to...

Wondering if this is a d series engine? It has very good compression and I am going to sell it.

Well I finished commercial #2 tonight! Again it was an adventure because the guy that had them before me put plastic white wheels on them so the shoulder bolts were too short. I had to order some snapper bolts and modify. It came out really great! Still need to get the toe bar for the deck. Got...

Well it's been an adventure, but I have completely finished my first restore. I have officially caught the lawn boy fever. Three weeks ago I purchased two mod 6461 commercials, an extra f engine and and three full boxes of lawn boy parts including 6 brand new f series coils for $125. The second...
