Hi all, I'm new to the forum. I've had my mower about 8 years or so. It is an older Craftsman. I'm thinking early 70's but wondering if someone can help me narrow it down or provide more info.

It is currently fitted with a 10hp Tecumseh but the previous owner (older gentleman) told me it was originally an 8hp model ?

He had repainted it but 'Craftsman' is evident under the paint on the hood. I use it regularly and it runs and cuts great.

Thanks!

Here are a few pictures..

Look on the side of the transmission for a model number tag,
and also take a pic or two of the deck hardware, so we can decide on who made it.
Of course, try to read the tag under or behind the seat as well.
