Picked up a old Snapper mower yesterday for only $20, a deal to good to pass up on. :biggrin: It is a self propelled 21" deck with a 3.5 HP Briggs and Stratton engine and according to the engine code was built in February of 1990. Black on red original with side pull rope and chute. Everything works. Put some gas in the tank, primed and she fired right up! This makes two I have now as I already had one I use for trail mowing that I posted the other day. I have attached some pics I took yesterday after trying it out. A nice paint job and it should look good as new. Can't beat these old Snappers as they say it's a snap with a snapper. :laughing:

Yep that looks good, and another side discharge too. That be a good back up mower. So if u plan on painting it are u going to stick with the red and black or go with the red and white? I repainted one a couple years ago, dis-assembled the whole thing. was a lot of work (for me) but learned how all those parts go together. Good find:thumbsup:
