farmerall 23 #1 Posted May 24, 2011 Last Firday I was helping my nieghbors clean out a building that the state is buying and I asked if there was anything in the attic. They told me they didn't remember and that they hadn't been up there for at least 12 years. At first I wasn't really concerned about going up there becasue I didn't feel like climbing up a ladder to get there. I'm sure glad I did though! There first thing that caught my eye was a TORO PROLINE sign that was sitting right next to the hoel to get up there. THen what I found next made my mouth drop open. I walked ofver to a box and looked in it to find a brand new hood for a 300/400 series wheel horse . It turned out that he used to be a toro dealer years ago. The best part was I alos got everything for free!!!! I will get some pics to show you guys soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TT-(Moderator) 1,162 #3 Posted May 24, 2011 I used to see "new" hoods (and fenders) on the scrap pile at the local dealer all the time. If it had one little visible scratch or ding, they installed a new part and "junked" the old one. It would be nice to have them all now, huh? :hide: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
