just thought id share a few pictures and show you all what i mow with . i have restored two garden tractors in the past year one was a 1985 JD 318 the other is a 1975 JD 400 . yesterday i went and picked up a 1971 JD 112 that needs a lot of TLC but i'll get it restored by next summer . there not really lawn mowers but they mow the lawn .

here is the 112

the 318 i wish i hadn't sold

and my 400

thanks guys i do love these old tractors . i had a L130 for 3 seasons and found the 318 but didnt run so i get it running and with in two weeks i sold the L130 . these old JD where built to last a life time and i think with care and proper maintenance they will . i have a good friend that works at a dealership and he even says they dont build them like these anymore .
