Racinbob 11,370 #1 Posted December 29, 2014 Why do I spend time on some things? Cuz I prefer red over green I guess. I shamelessly stole the idea from a guy who converted one to a Cub rider.

squonk 41,715 #4 Posted December 29, 2014 I like it! I had an A-111 when I moved into my house 26 yrs ago. Where did you get the decals? You might want to fab a bigger deck on that. Gonna take you a month to mow your lawn especially if you leave that bagger on ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,370 #5 Posted December 29, 2014 I told my wife she could mow with it but she's gotta make the engine sound herself. I wonder how long it will take her to figure out there's no blade under the deck. The decals are home brewed. MS Word and Avery address labels. Terry certainly doesn't need to worry about me being competition. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
