Re: My yard sale find
If it is in decent condition. No engine knocks, growls or other sound, tires in fair condition, body not all rusted out, pto, 3 point hitch and transmission all work you got a good buy.
Welcome the forum.
EDIT:
Just saw the picture. You got a real good deal.
Just out of curiosity what do you plan on doing with it? Restoration. Work."If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy" - Red Green

Re: My yard sale find
Iam sure you already know one can't get name brand rider garden tractor in darn good shape for the price you pay on 8N.
Parts aren't all that costly compare to smaller models,soooo little tinkering etc. etc. you'll be setting mighty fine.
Congrats on your new investment.

Congrats, for a working machine, I'd say you got a great deal.
