JohnD1956 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Well, following the link from Rich, I ran across this.

retirednow Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Anybody remember those old reel mowers w/ a cup that you had to wrap a rope around each and every pull? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1957buickjim Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Chuck, how suprising that you have the muffler bearings for that rare mower. I have the hydraulic lug nuts and the frammiss gasket rebuild kit for it - NOS. We should really get a hold of this guy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
