bell 11 #1 Posted March 29, 2011 I picked this unit up today. The P.O. said that he parked it a couple years ago, due to it blowing fuses. He said it ran well, but just kept having wiring issues. We negotiated a price and loaded it up. Then I saw one of the wheel weights on the floor of the barn. He said, "those go with it!" It looks to have spent all of it's life inside and is in EXCELLENT condition. It got REALLY dirty on the way home... I'm undecided on what I'm doing with it, but it will probably be for sale, after I get it running and cleaned up. I would love to keep it, but it's just too big for my yard. Who knows though, I may sell the deck , buy a dozer and clevis hitch and sell a few of my little ones... The weights are about 100 (literally) pounds each... I'll probably be selling them also.
