Omg! Booooooing!

Hell I thought you'd be excited. They are the real deal :thumbsup:
I'm not even thinking about restoring them but I will paint those crappy old handles. The paint is still good on the decks... a little polishing compound and some wax and they'll look like new.
Kinda wish I could have got the other two just for the engines and other parts.

I saw a rebuilt block on Dallas CL... guy wanted almost 300 for it. Sriously? I built an engine w/ forged pistons/rods and ported & polished heads and exhaust manifolds (turbocharged... gotta have that flow:biggrin:) onece. Maybe I'll see what I can do with one of these ;)
The only thing about these is the parts are pricey. 5 bucks for a carb gasket :O
And the drive cable looks like the exmark drive cable so I know thats gonna be $45 right there. I haven't even checked the blades on them. The belts work but I wouldn't want to take a chance on them. Still I won't be spending much more than I spent on the crappy lawnboy.

Deal for today 25 gallons of gas.

Guy at the pump put 25 gallons of gas in his diesel. The rear tank only that was empty. He asked if I had a way to get it out and I could have the gas.
Lucky me had a hose.

It worked out good as I had stopped there to fill up.

Don't think his tank was completely empty.
I filled my truck and mowers and my mix can. My wife can smell diesel as she trims.
But everything is running good.
