Having and not needing is always better than needing and not having....

Depends on your intended jobs for it. I you must have a heavy duty garden tractor (which I doubt) then here it is. If you want something to putter with then keep looking.

I got me one of them there newfangled driverless trucks. You just push the speaker button and tell it where you want to go.

That's a 312-8 with 14 HP replacement engine and tall chute blower. The front chain guard is missing from the blower and the wings are on backwards too. Other than a messed up seat it don't look too bad! Guessing it's an 89 Ha, I can't see $%!t just like you guys can't either! Where'd you pic that thing up Ed? London? You're sitting on the wrong side! LOL

That is how "Captain Kangaroo's" buddy MISTER GREENGEANS got his stage name, went out to mow wearing white pants.

Absolutely agreed. My Uncle Ron does as well.

I've replaced your obvious silliness with more appropriate information.

Oooooooooo. YES! I've invented new "sentence enhancers" after doing just that.

Marketing is king! On no.....

Put six of them to bed for the winter. 312H, 520-8, 416H, 520H (X2), 312-8 Siphoned out most of gas then ran till empty. Pulled battery. These were barely ran all summer so I didn't bother doing oil changes etc. Got the 520HC with the plow moved up and I will get it all checked out and ready for winter duty. The 520 with the mower deck is still in service to grind up leaves for the next few weeks.

Say what?

If your back is aching and you cannot dismount as Erick did, a lower seat back and an auto trans with a hydraulic lift will enable you to swing a leg over the steering wheel. I have done it both ways. With a manual lift be careful as it is pretty easy to bruise your leg on the handle

The 520's come with 8" fronts and heavier tie rods from factory. The factory tie rods are as heavy as most Big tractor tie rods, would be hard to improve on those.

Another way to say that it is a 45 to 50 year old orphan. Unless you already have 2 identical parts machines. A true rugged beast in its day. IMHO - not prime to be a solid investment now. Others may say to the contrary... Again, IMHO.
