I've had that Coronet down to Carlisle numerous times beginning in 1998. I've really cut back on the trips to Carlisle with it over the last 15 years though, 1st place every time. It only has 50,000 original miles, factory 383 4 bbl car. Never restored or disassembled (re-painted , long story). I'll have to get some pictures posted . 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wheel Horse, what's that? 😂 Snapper walk-behinds and rear-engines are still going strong with avid followings. They didn't do as well with the GTs, that's for sure. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmoore 687 #296 Posted March 25, 2022 Back in the early 70's I was cutting with a rear engine 32" cut I believe? I use to replace that drive disc every season. Went through lots of steering components as well. I guess all those wheelies didn't help😆 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
