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 a new blade for both mowers. I clear coated the whole mower and put the new decals on. Here are the pics

Wow, looks fantastic. I love the on/off toggle with no bail. One of my two commercials is set up that way. My favorite mower. What did you do to the Snapper bolts to make them work? What wheels are those, NOS?

Thanks! The wheels are from the stems catalog. I used a half inch lock washer on the bolt head side and a flat washer on the threads and tightened it down. The threads are 5/8" long on the snapper bolt and 1/2" long on the oem so I needed to eliminate some of the thread length to keep it from rubbing the deck. I have a guy redoing my front lawn boy emblem for me right now. He did my other one for me and he made it look brand new!
