AGWAY 12/38 riding mower by MTD

[TT-(Moderator) 1,128]

I normally wouldn't admit to owning this particular type of machine, but I just bought this on Sunday off a local CL ad.

I don't think I have ever seen an older MTD that was taken care of as good as this one. According to sources, this one is a 1991 model.

The Briggs engine sump cover was terribly worn at the bottom crankshaft bearing and was actually binding to the point of being totally powerless when the deck was engaged. It now has an 11hp I.C. Briggs engine from a 1983 WH B-115 under the hood, and is ready to move on to the next owner.

Now, TT, don't go price gouging like you did on that Gravely. B)

[TT-(Moderator) 1,128]

How 'bout if I told y'all I paid $450 for it and it's now for sale for $300......

That'd be alright, wouldn't it? B)

Nice score, Jake !

BTW, just how uncomfortable is that shifter to operate?

[TT-(Moderator) 1,128]

The fastest speed is toward the front, so that's where I leave it.

(you know me. )

Have to move it to the back for "park" though. B)

You know, that ain't bad looking. And TT, you can lose more than that can't ya? :horseplay:

[TT-(Moderator) 1,128]

I suppose I can, Karl.....

It wouldn't be the first I've received. :whistle:

[rustbucket 4]

hey TT you wouldnt happen to have anything in the tin ghost catagory with a plow and hydro rear?? my uncle in bangor is looking for something his wife can use to push snow around and wont coast an arm and leg

[TT-(Moderator) 1,128]

Nope... only thing I currently have fitting that description is the engineless Case 220. (and it won't be cheap 'til I'm done with it. )

wow! that is a clean tractor. nice score. worth a easy $400 if it runs and mows good.

[T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,345]

Well, Perry, TT never said it ran and mowed, but that it was ready to "move" onto the next owner. Pushing is moving.... B)

Let's say for the sake of discussion that I broke even on this one. B)

[BairleaFarm 339]

[TT-(Moderator) 1,128]
