Buzz 502 #1 Posted August 1, 2008 It's a 1973 16 Automatic (1-0440) Decent shape, hopefully the engine and tranny are good but looks like it will be a fall project. As soon as I saw it i fell in love with the handcrafted oak cup holder. looks to be an extremely rare design and will add resale value in the future. the neighbor is supposed to have a tiller and plow for it, will find out when he gets back from vacation. Here's some photos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,130 #2 Posted August 1, 2008 Uh, the seat's all wrong, mower deck is all wrong.... Buzz...... it just won't do. Tell ya what, hold onto it until I can take care of these things for you... Seriously, that is a great use of $50, the deck alone you could recoup your bucks...

WheelHorse_of_course 99 #5 Posted August 1, 2008 B) Very nice. I notice it even has the hole for a cigarette lighter - you could have that AND the cup holder. Best of both worlds :banana: :horseplay: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buzz 502 #10 Posted August 1, 2008 I think Karl is hinting...... and not too subtely I might add. Just managed to beat out Dan (Gattonade) and Tryg (Zamboniguy). Both of them could find a use for it. Karl.....the seat bottom has a hole in it . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Electro12WH 50 #20 Posted August 2, 2008 I am so envious! 16 Hydro, my favorite. Needs a bigger mower deck though. If I copied the cup holder, would they sell? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
