Large lawn improvement

For 10 acres you need this! I bought it new 20 years ago and it's been sitting 15. New battery,belt,blade,tires,oil,carburetor,hoses,gas&air filter&pressure washed.
If you start at 8am Saturday may finish in time for Sunday church.
30 inch cut.
That's what I actually used to cut 2 acres 20 years ago & it took a while. It actually runs great & no idea what to do with it.

Take the mower deck off and use it as a go-cart around the yard or to the shed or mailbox.

Actually that's not a bad idea! I had the mower deck off today...it's pretty easy. I'd have to change the pulley so maybe it would go faster.

I just dragged an old 80's snapper like this out of a junk pile. It wasn't running but I rebuilt the starter, replaced the carb, totally rewired the entire mower, replace the drive wheel (clutch/brake), new belt and new blade. It's driving and mowing perfectly now. I figured it will be a good slow mower for the twins to learn to mow on before they jump on my big and overly fast ZT.

Old snapper... 🤮

Especially if it's in its 80's! :ROFLMAO:

LOL I started mowing on one of these when I was a kid and always wanted another one. I had been watching for one to pop up for a while now when this one was listed as junk and wanted it gone. That thing mows really nice!

I remember several of those old things from when I was a kid. Some of them had a steering wheel and some of them had a steering... "rectangle?" It seems like if you did it just right you could pop the front wheels off the ground if you dumped the clutch and pulled back on the wheel just right.

I'm beginning to think slang varies regionally, more than I had realized. I wasn't talking about mowers. :p
