grnlark 479 #1 Posted August 6, 2010 I picked this 58 up a few nights ago. It's suprisingly very solid. It was less a motor and gas tank, but I have a sweet Clinton that will make itself right at home. If anyone has a gas tank kicking around though, please let me know. The tank straps are intact and real clean too which is a plus. I have to admit though, I kinda like the cream color... But no, it will be returned to red. I have this coming week off, so guess what I'll be working on? Attached Image Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 14,934 #3 Posted August 6, 2010 Maybe you can keep it cream colored and get the VinylGuy to make you some reverse decals. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buzz 502 #8 Posted August 8, 2010 Hey Matt, could you post a picture or two of your articulating Bolens in the "other brands" section? My buddy Zeke tried to buy one in really rough condition at Jacktown but it was already sold. He even offered the buyer more money but he wouldn't sell it. Thursday night I was at the Salem County fair and ran into another buddy who has one all restored. Bought it for $100. Eventually I'll give it to Zeke. I want to bust his stones a little first. That's what friends are for... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Give me your email and I'll send you pics. If you think he might seriously be interested in buying one, let me know. I'd be more than happy holding off listing it. The machine is super clean and sweet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
