AMC RULES 37,130 #13 Posted October 16, 2014 So...tell us more about your Speedex. What model is it, how long have you had it, bought in original condition/running? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CasualObserver 3,408 #14 Posted October 16, 2014 Lots of guys here like to read about other brands as well... Would love to see a write up on the Speedex in here.... http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/forum/6-other-brands/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bandit 4 #15 Posted October 16, 2014 AMC I'll do a write up on it in the other brand, but quick run down on it. Its a 1964 speedex s23 with a e-z spin 9hp Briggs model 23d. I bought a house last November but its been in my family since the late 60s early 70s, it was running when my dads father bought it, had a 44 or 48" deck( long gone now) and a plow. Its pretty original including the very dry rotted tires. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
