New horse for the barn

Recommended Posts

I just picked this one up from a guy who said just take it, I don't have the time to mess with it. 1972 Commando 800 it needs a lot of work and to be red again. I don't know who owned it before but that color "well I'll let you say it." So we're off to the races. It has a K181S that he says runs guess we'll find out. I may need some help with parts and so because there is no manual or documentation but it will be an adventure.

It looks like their was a sale on green paint at Wally World :thumbs2:

Overall good deal, looks like a straight machine and ready to be stripped down and restored back to its glory.

I'd leave it that color and challenge Jerry AKA oldand red to a ugly tractor contest. :thumbs2:

The model number to look up parts etc. is 1-0110. If you go to Toro's MPV and enter it you get a complete parts breakdown of your beauty. Here's the link:

Thanks Buzz I was trying to get that off Toro site but I guess I wasn't putting number in right. Give me a couple weeks and it will be red again thank goodness it's only latex paint and it comes right off. Same color as the airport fire trucks.

That look-at-me Green is hard on the eyes. Kinda makes you cringe when you see it for the first time. Nice find though, congrats.
