peter lena 9,316 #7 Posted November 2, 2019 interesting to look at this picture, there is a guy not too far from me that resells all kinds of stuff, including lawn tractors , w/h included. his idea is to pick up something ,and then let it sit outside without any protection and let it rot and self destruct, until someone spots it and wants to buy it . the horse above is an example of that thought, the ones near me are in 3 ft of grass and scrub , just fading away. in today's Chinese junk world , how can you let this happen ? pete 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
