Well I have been reading post after post for about 6 months and have never posted yet so,I figured I would say hello and see if I can get a picture or two to post,I have many projects going on Simplicity 2010,2 Sovergein 18's,and a little 515 simplicity,some other brands MF 8,and cub cadet 1250,some are restored to use some are going to be restored for show,hard to find time with my work I work for Rubbermaid and am on 12 hour shifts so I get to mess around with these mowers some but not all the time,lets see if this works.

Brad, welcome to the site. You truly have a fine looking round top there. Are you going to go with 4 or 6.5 inch front wheels? |

Nice looking lineup! That Serf is looking like a new one again, very detailed. Nice looking large frames too. |

Very nice...thanks for sharing!! That Serf is super sharp. I can't find one here to save my life. The 2010 is a beauty and it's great you have one that's been in the family that long. Keep us posted on your progress =] |

Sim-Chalmers. Welcome to the site. You have some very nice tractors. When you want to post more than 1 pic just click the paperclip again after you upload and close the window for your first pic. You don't have to make a new post for each pic. Enjoy the site and the people. Dave. |

Brad,
Welcome to the site. Thanks for starting out with pictures right away, we all like pictures!
Curious, what did you use for paint on the 515? It looks very nice, the colors look very close match to the original color.
