Wishin4a416 2,191 #1 Posted April 27, 2014 I went to pick up a Craigs List 42'' RD Mower today and got a Tractor too. The deck is in nice shape and just needs some TLC. He didn't want to sell just the deck and I knew this going in. I always wanted one of these gray/silver ones so now I have it. The sheet metal is super straight and just minor surface rust in places. Going to make a nice project tractor. Probably a 14 Kohler will go on it. He also had a twin to it there with the Briggs motor and a 38'' side discharge mower in good shape but needing work. I didn't pay much attention to it. The one I got had the better metal. And in the garage he had a 416-8 Kohler version that's his worker. Sweet! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 23,147 #6 Posted April 27, 2014 A Kohler Magnum fits in real nice where the Briggs used to be! My GT-1600 has a Mag 10. Mike........... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
