First pic is the first mowing attempt......scalp city. Not sure why WH wouldn't have put a few height choices....only all up or all down.

Second and third pics are 2 things I did to fix the scalp problem. I added 2 more notches on the lift bracket and a spring assist to let the deck raise evenly.

 

Fourth pic is the result.....mowed pretty nice for a 51 year old mower. It will never be all stock so I figured a few alterations wouldn't hurt.

Getting ready to tear down my main mower so I'll use the little LR as a temp fill-in.

 

Yes.....it's purple. I'll hit it with Regal Red in time. I learned the hard way to get the thing totally operational before messing with the look.

I also added a trunk!

      So.... I just got home with this. I been wanting to fix one up for my 9 yr old nephew. I need to do it in a hurry as I will be going in hospitol soon for my 3rd battle with cancer. You know the story. Was told it ran about a month or so ago. Not running now. I just got home with it so I haven't checked it out yet. Have never owned a Lawn Ranger before, and know nothing about them. Maybe you guys can tell me what I have here and any advice would be helpful as well. Seems to be complete with the exception of the seat. Going to need to pick one up somewhere.

      1964? Lawn Ranger
      By jp_vikings
      I have what I believe is a 1964 Lawn Ranger. 
      I'm wondering how rare they are and wondering what it is worth in the original condition it is in now.
      May possibly restore it when I catch up on all my other projects. 
      Thank you!
