Nice I just bought one last week and it's been used a lot 1357 hours on it 

 

he kept it clean but it needs saved

 

I asked him to give me the numbers on the tag as the hood plate had no numbers but the tag under the seat and he said it was faded but said it looks like 001

 

ill find out next week for my self

I picked one up recently too, but it's pretty ugly right now.  The tractor runs as smooth as can be, but cosmetically it will need a redone sometime in the future.  The serial tag sticker is all but gone and the plate on the hood was never engraved with the number.  I do have the Kohler serial number and was curious if there would be any correlation between that and the tractor serial numbers.  If a pattern could be established, such as sequential numbering of engine serial numbers used for the 420-LSE tractors, then perhaps I could get a close estimate of where mine was on the production line.

You guys have cleaner ones then I have. Terry the venial guy has made up the decals FOR 420 LSE, and they look great if you folks are looking there on his web page.  Yes I too hope I can get the number of mine as well.

 

But still please send a note so I can try to get a total number.

Yes they are nice machines I'm trying to get a tally of Red Square members who own them in to see if we can get a count of how many is left out there even if it's based on percentage. I have a 520 as well and yes they are nice machines

I have the ugliest duckling, but it is really a LSE. Looking for a louvered hood, and I am getting a decal set. It is getting a complete overhaul next summer, so hopefully it will be saved from a rusty death. This one is and always be a worker. I was curious if anyone had an indication of how loud their LSE was. I have a 417-8 , and being a similar motor, I thought they would be about he same, but my LSE is VERY loud. Is it possible my muffler is gutted, or were they designed to be a little louder from the factory? Anyway, great pictures! Ill be following along to see all the clean ones, and continue to dream.

One of mine is #85 and the other one is not stamped on the plate and the decal is too faded.

Mine is serial number 098.  Not shown on the hood plate but was barely visible on the fender pan decal.

 

I think it would be grate if all of them could come to the WHCC show.

@Cable has the 420 ever been the featured tractor at the show in Arendtsville?  If not, might be kind of nice to piggy back off of the 520's.  :)
