You boys crack me up! It was a good snag...hopin to get a nice steady purr our of her, and a grill section. THEN, I'd have something nice and orange to park on Jon's site next year for sure! 
I'm trying not to fall in love with them all, but that 101 is purdy. I always liked the hood decals on them...kinda cool. Now I have two non-runners and it keeps me awake at night!
Before I get any more, I need to clear some room in the barn...can't afford to finance outside storage =]
Jon-
If you need a Broadmoor deck, maybe that can be your bait to Charlotte this weekend?  If I do get a Broadmoor, I don't think I'd bother with mowing. Of all the seat time I get, that's my least favorite. If I had actual grass, it may be a different story...
Freddie...we expect a full report on Monday! Be nice to see this Lake House of yours too  |

| Killin me Josh! :) I'm in the same boat, I don't think I would ever mow with the little guys unless my yard got really downsized. Besides, now it is stinkin raining here! It is tempting though. Your close enough I could always shoot over to your place some evening right after work, that way I could see your 'work force' too! :) No Charlotte this weekend... :( |

Right you are Freddie, the 32" deck for the fdt's has a totally different setup and a guard on the pulley....

Pretty sure they went to the 42" bolt-together in '60. That B-more deck is yours if you want it...but yeah, you might have to come drive some Allis' first if you want to take it home!
Im thinkin another photo-op... |

Seen the number, thought it was a bolt-together. I love learning about these things. Ive seen three of the bubble decks, and all have been 990172's.
One of these days the youngin's will be old enough to cut grass, and that deck will be a blessing for dad!
Did I mention the blades have never touched a blade of grass? Brand spankin new! |
