I didn't dare to sit on it with the shroud removed. I know a fellow who got pretty torn up by an old Johnny Popper. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stepney 2,332 #27 Posted May 3, 2020 Well, this is about how she'll stay until time comes to try it out. Changed out the oddly nice original seat with a later unit, as this will be a occasional worker. Lift side rear hub a little loose, PTO side stuck on hard, but the axle wobbles a bit in the housing. No big deals. Spent a solid three hours getting the recoil to work, but it seems fine now. Tacked on some battered old chrome and hubcaps. Beginning to take shape and look like it ought to again. Pulled the finish mower off too. Not too sure on it's model, but I have seen the type before. Already added newer mid hitch and brackets, will be adding a factory adapter front hitch tomorrow. Starts so easily on the rope, I may just leave it that way. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
