Don't ask me why...

[HeyMrP 83]

Just bought this A-90. Not sure why! Now I'm wondering what I should do with it. Fix it up? Part it out? Keep it along with my 310? The fella I got it from says he parked it running 8-10 years ago. It's been sitting behind his barn all these years. The motor is not locked. Opinions?

Who here WOULD ask why ?

At first glance I agreed with my dog....Ruff!

But the more I look at the photo, I see it might not need all that much to get it running, and put to work.

I hope you keep us posted on the project.

Oh my. I've seen worse, and I've seen them fully restored. At the WHCC show last year there were several in various conditions. It would be quite a project though, but if you have time...

There's plenty of old B&S 18hp vert. twins out there ... I'm sure you can figure out the rest  !!!

now is a beutiful horse compared to my a-100 when she was delivered.

it was really fun restoring my a-100 and now it looks like this

well of coarse its up to you,how much time do you have,i personally don't have enough time to do my real horses let alone a vert shaft,and I would not put any cash into one either,id spend my time on a garden tractor,but that's only my opinion

If it was mine, I'd get her runnin' and use it as is.  Maybe find a mower deck.  It would be a good back up tractor or use to pull a dump cart, let the kids drive around, etc.
