I was going to ride 90 miles to pay 200 $ for a bush hog that needed work then a neighbor gave me this and this big viseand this v8 ford motorand a dryer and ac for scrap and tomorow he has an old mower and mower trailer he is going to give me . the bush hog brand is a hardee panther its a five footer it needs some work but it was free. I love it when a plan comes together tomorrow I start working on it I will post pics as I go.

It would mean more to that neighbor to see you get some good use out of it than to sell it. Might be the deciding factor of giving you anything else.

What is that bush hog hooked to? Did he give you a tractor too? Anyway, good deal. Even if you need to buy a gearbox, you saved money. Well worth fixing it.

if you do any repairs or fabrication YOURSELF, keep the vice, it's the extra hand you always wanted, and no insurance or feed bills. You were ready to spend $200 and you did, just differently.

 

[boxorox]

your right I am going to keep I have about a 80foot pine to cut this afternoon so I should have a few bucks coming in.

 

[boxorox]

artist I know its to big fr it but I just used the kubota to drag it hme as my shibaura had a flat front tire and I went last night to tractorsupply to get tube and a top link pin.

 

[6011Artist]

I knew that wasn't your tractor. You seem so lucky I thought he'd maybe given you the tractor too.

 

[boxorox]

he had more to give mea 22hp craftsman that runs but needs to be jumped a mower trailerand pull behind disc that he had converted to 3 point all this he no longer needed

 

[mikehaugen]

alright, so I'll ask... what do you have on this guy? :laughing:

 

[boxorox]

I did cut a couple stumps off short for him and one tree but it was in a pasture I just dropped it I was doing it for free cause his wife works at same private school my mother teaches at. I guess he felt guilty but only 1.5 hour work.some of the stuff from day before yesterday from some body who called me from a sighn I put up at intersection that said I haul junk.

 

[6011Artist]

You know you HAVE to mount that motor onto the mower, you just have to!

 

[boxorox]

its got a blown cylinder if your talking about the v8 he also gave me a murray 14.5 hp that fell off a trailer but runs Im snatching the motor to do a log splitter build when I get a cylinder.
