Thanks guys...this was the mower that got me collecting lawnboys, couldn't wait to start fixing her up. Next I have to decide what I am going to do about the old cork float. It's not in the best of shape, and I don't know where I could find a new one. I may strip and reseal it, or try my hand at making a new one.
Any suggestions on how to proceed? I do want it to be right when it's done.
