They certainly are addictive!! I'm planning on getting all my atachments lined up for a photo op as well. It's taken years to accumulate the things I want and there's still many more items on the list. If not for ebay, I wouldn't have any where near the collection that I have. Being disabled is the pitts. If I have a want on my wish list I have to sell in order to buy. But it's worked well for me for some time.
Joe, I had many conversations with Dutch on the phone when all that was going down. He's a good guy that just got a bumm wrap like Ron did. At least we have our saint and savior Michael!!!! |

Ron would agree with you on the Kohlers. I've rebuilt a couple of the old cast iron single lugs and they are easy to work on, but I'm just more familiar with my B&S engines. What's the old saying? If we all looked alike we wouldn't know the difference? |

On the other site, that Agway/MTD is a dirty word,,,,But in my book, a LAWN mower that lasts, goin on 25 years,,,is a good'n!! And with luck, I'mm mow with it this year too!!![](icon_smile_wink.gif)
Sean, if I had all those tractors, I'd never be able to make the desision on which one to mow with![](icon_smile_blush.gif)
BTW, there was no deck on the WH,,,sounds like it's just as well.![](icon_smile_wink.gif) |

Joe, I would sure like to see your 400's and what ever else you are collecting. You know, showing pictures is a requirement...![](icon_smile_big.gif) |

shocking Sean, I do believe that is punishable in Wisconsin as a crime against nature. I had to cover my eyes...having grown up in an Allis House.![](icon_smile_cool.gif) |

It amazes me where YouTube will take you when you set out to only look for one type of video. I started looking at Allis and Simps and wound up watching herculean women tossing bowling balls some 20 feet at a dunk tank target!
Joe, my Wheel Horses rear discharge deck wound up being donated to keep a B-80 in service. Then, when I converted the B-80s owner to Simplicity and Allis-Chalmers, the 800 Special, GT14 Automatic and B-80 all wound up on ebay to fund the Simp/AC bug.
Phil...I found that video shortly after searching for Simp/Allis videos and right before the hurculean women...lol. |

Phil, Once it warms up a bit more here, I'll get the pics of the 400s for you. If you looked in my photobucket thing, you'll see a watch fob collection. If I get a couple good pics of them, I'll start a thread in the yakin section,,,,ok???
Sean's thread here could end up like some we get over on MBN.
It works over there,,,but I got no idea how or why. But I think we better not push Mike over here. Heck, no one has corrected my spelling or grammer yet, I'm still try'n to get over that .
Sean, when I was welding, an old timer friend did a few lawns with a WH and rear dischare deck. He was always after me to plug the hole and open up a side one. I had a hard time convince'n him there was a bit more to it than that. But he hated it do to always leaving a windrow |

That was one complaint of mine also Joe. And.....I couldn't use my lawn vac! But that's not a problem now. |
