Got another cart last night

This is why reading Craigs list is dangerous.

I find another cart yesterday. Just like the one I bought a few months back. This one lead a easy life and lived in a garage. The owner took the dump handle off and bolted the cart and hitch together. He just used it to haul. The bed is very nice. No deep rust pits. Over the years he painted the rims to match his 310-8 wheel horse. I just hit it with the hose to get most of the dust off. The shape is pretty darn good. Needless to say I feel like I struck gold. The best part. Less than a mile away from home. When I pulled in the driveway to smuggle it in. The Mrs. Pulled in right before me. Suprisingly. No reprecussions. Enjoy the pics.

Very nice.

 

The 7-2211 was produced 1968-1974 and they made so much product those years that they used the 493435 serial number in each of them.

 

The 1971-1974 models would have had a -6, -7, -8 or -9 suffix following the model number.

 

That leaves this one a 1968, 1969 or 1970 model.

I bought an 857 and cart from a gentleman who told me that he got the cart with the 857 back in 1967. 

Although the tag is missing, the 5.5 cubic foot bath tub cart was called an LTD-224 in 1967.

This is how the cart looked the day I picked it up.cart3.thumb.jpg.363b34786e9122722f1b4286cart1.thumb.jpg.0cb82e33819fbde937d3198fcart2.thumb.jpg.76ee1817bd28f5887d463641

Nice pickup Bob, seems the past couple months "cart crazy" fever is hitting us.
