bmuone 15 #4 Posted June 5, 2010 I think everyone is gone or busy today. They'll be back. That motor mower will make a fun-time restore. At least it would for me cause its pretty simple looking for tear down. At present I have a 211-4 torn down and just keep hoping I took enough pictures and notes to get it back together. And the 312 looks really nice....only.....something I can't seem to put my finger on..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevec 0 #5 Posted June 5, 2010 yeah i know. it came to me painted in tremclad yeller. didn't want to spend alot of time sanding it all off so i put a proper shade of yellow on it, i'm a catterpillar guy, and there is only one yellow (unless it's a mcculloch ). on a side note, i tried to post in the introduction thread but i keep getting bumped out (might be on my end).

bmuone 15 #6 Posted June 5, 2010 Not sure about that intro thread...takes a few visits to get to know ins and outs. And now that the ole yeller story is out I bet no one even notices. It's a clean lookin machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
