Junk yard find MF65 for $500--few questions

[sadexcuse4s10]

nice score! I wanted to buy a MF 40B my buddy's dad had for years, then he traded the **** thing in on a zero turn kubota mower.

Looks in good shape, nice find!

Other than the paint being faded, it seems to be in really good shape. The only leaks I've noticed are around the PTO handle & the PTO shaft. It is very quiet running (except for the blown out muffler) not really any gear whine....seems much more refined than my AC WD45.
