I was lookin through craigs this morning,,, and found these in an odd listing,, I contacted the nicest old gentleman and he hadn't had the first call in a couple weeks,, had them out in front of his place off and on for a month, no interest. I couldn't keep my excitment controled when he said "$300 ,,wife said to get rid of them". He was only about 40 minutes away too. Both engines started with first pull, no smoke, no rattles. Belts and tires is all they need,,,,,WOW !!!

Money can't buy you happiness.
It can however buy you a beer.
And that is close enough.

| I've got a nice B112 with a newly rebuilt engine,,(that I stole also ), think I'll team them up with it. According to the original adds,, you could mow a football field in 20 minutes. This should work great on our 400 yd rifle range,, it's about 3 1/2 acres |

| Those are cool mowers. Would like to see a somewhat aerial view of them hooded up behind the tractor. |

did you get a hitch bar as well?
Ive seen the mowers before but never seen an original
tow bar to offset them to both sides.
I bought a swisher 60" offset deck a few years back.
I love it... huge time saver! |

| Wow that is some find. I'd like to see them together when you get the system setup! If a 48" deck can do 2.25 acre in an hour, You'll be able to do closer to 6 acre in an hour with that. Not too many cutting that, but it could be useful to some. |

| Wow what a deal! They look to be rather well cared for. I want a set, have zero use for them though. |

| I know someone who I could setup with those, but I don't need them either! It would be three runs and the lawn would be done. Take more time setting them up and caring for them! |

| Just a note ,,just looked at the serial numbers,,, 1135 and 1136,,, mower decks have a few numbers between them,, but real close. When these were sold, you could buy just one Mfg #509 or the set of two mfg #526,,, these were the frames only,, you had to purchase the decks separate. So these were bought as a set with hitch bar. He told me he had gotten them at school auction,, the 3112 was there also, but they split them up and sold the tractor by itself. |

so did you get the hitch bar? I'd be very interested to see a picture of it if you did. |
