6wheeler 603 #1 Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Some of you may remember me saying I don't buy things I don't need! Well? Apparently , I need a 312h. A guy I work with called me last Thursday during my P.T. session and wanted me to call him asap. When I called, he was at a garage sale and the fella having the sale had a tractor in his shed that he wanted gone. It was a 312h that has a 42" deck but, the deck has a big crack about 2/3 of the way around the right spindle base from hitting a paver stone. The deck would not turn. So, he took it off. After he found what it would cost to repair or replace the deck? He opted for a different tractor instead. That was 6 years ago. He put it in the corner of the shed to work on it later. But, like a lot of us? Never got to it. Not really wanting it? I naturally low balled the heck out of it." $25 dollars is all I would offer". Fully knowing (or hoping), that may offend him. And, he would say "no way". WRONG! "When can you pick it up, he asked"? Now, I am the one caught. "Probably not til next week, I say". "No problem, he says. Been in there 6 years, another week ain't gonna hurt". I picked up the deck on Friday. I think I can fix it. I looked at the tractor too, very clean. Any info on these 312's ? Good/bad? Oh, and? Sorry TerryM, it is just 3 blocks east of you. Edited May 25, 2015 by 6wheeler 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
