My First Purple Stripe

Recommended Posts

Pollack Pete

Bought this 520-H a couple nights ago on a popular web auction site.The squaw and I took the 300 mile round trip this morning and picked it up.I guess this is the newest WH I have.Lots of luxuries compared to the older ones.No attachments with this one.I'd like to find maybe a snow blower or snow plow?Any one know where I can find the number plate on this so I can decipher the year? Thanks for any info.

Nice find :thumbs:

How in the world did someone bend the one running board?

The number plate should be under the seat on the none pto side and it's just a sticker. Good luck

Scratch that. The blower I know of is for 250 or 260 series. Sorry

did you get that from Mike in Carmel? good buy. It is an early one back from the H and HC days, due to the regular axle (not swept) and hydro motion lever, I would guess 88-89 range, tag would have been under the seat.

i bought a deck from him too, he was ok to me, actually delivered me the deck at the time. Steve is right, I asked him about suburbans he had, and never got an answer...oh well..I got a heck of a deal for him. I know the town is after him because of the collection. Not sure what they can do, but that area is very high $$$ high power area for what it is (putnam is the 5th richest county in the US as of 2010).

Pete you were about 15 or 20 minutes from me. If I would have known you were coming I would have met you over there to say hi.

Nice ride Pete. Welcome to the eighties!

I had a bunch of stuff listed on Ebay last fall. Broken blowers, trimmers etc. All parts machines. Mike took the whole lot. Like a wildman!!! I was thrilled to see it all go in one shot.

Best of luck w/ that one Pete!!!!
