Hey Guys,
Just doing a quick intro. Been fixing old mowers since before I could drive. It was the first thing I learned to wrench on with an engine! I would find ones by the curb and get them running. My dad would weld the decks if needed. I painted them, used them some then I would sell and find another. I was fortunate to get some of the good ones. Toro Whirlwinds, a lot of aluminum deck and magnesium sears mowers and a few snappers. The ones that actually would throw grass and no clump it all up. I loved the deck designs and the simplicity of the engines. Today’s mowers lack all the romance the old ones had in my opinion. I still fix a few here and there. Jim
