Well I did mention a new aquisition a few days ago so I had better share some pics.
The engine needs an overhaul, I think I'll just swap it for now. Steering seems tight, that's a plus. The 48" deck seems solid and I didn't see the usual crack across the front. And I have never before laid eyes on a 200 series with a steering wheel cap! I think it'll clean up nice. This one showed up an hour after two projects left, a round hood Landlord and an early B-10 found a new home. I also have moved a few other pieces lately, I've gotta do some cleaning up around here and keep the peace. |

With a little TLC it aught to be a real winner. |

I tell ya, that's a nice lookin original machine! I'm a big fan of the 12's. I might need to find a good, easy way to disable the variable on those, because I see a lot of them around and they are otherwise great workers. |

Oh, definitely good luck! If they think it's worth a fortune in scrap remind them it's only a bit over 1/4 of a ton. |

Yep, some idiot moved them after posting. I had no idea they would do that, now I know. Still need to figure out posting pics from the smart phone, can't seem to get it. If I ever do look out! |

Thanks guys! I am sure stoked over this one, I am a big fan of the 200 series after mowing a year with one. This one got shoved to the front of the shop in a reshuffle last Sunday getting the 900 series out in preparation of mowing. It will be a bit before I get to it as I have three projects ahead of it that have to happen first as per my own orders! I have to get my little Shaw walk behind together and then a couple little items on my 712H, and then get the MW Squire running. The Squire is on the stand waiting.
Nate, the swap at Mt. Pleasant Iowa is next month. http://www.oldthreshers.com/index.cfm/?pageID=61 I plan on taking some treasures to offer, last year I did a tarp covered with stuff with a sign $1 each or 5 for $4. Oh, was that popular! I have lots of items to put out this year, gotta clean up! I have too much stuff. |
