Oh, so it is common that explains why I found it. Mower is a 26" big wheel,10hp Wisconson light, still stout. Bought the thing in 86, today replaced the broke blade adapter. The blades are non existent, rebuilt the cutting edge & balance.

Ts are really the cheaper cars to buy, HotRod wise. Not fan cause of the way the driver sits and cockpit layout. Looks are cool I can give it that very mechanical. On the good side they can make someone a nice donor car. Ditch the body and frame and install the drive train in a coupe or sedan...
