I thought that too.
You got some nice logs for the fire Alain and sounds like you have struck a cool deal with that Ford and the rest of the garden tractors coming your way. Gone to a good home I say.
Your mate looks too clean and tidy to have fine any actual work!
Sam the hitch will not fit a TF Bolens. As for price I think you will be paying a lot more than you would want. Best not to advertise to everyone what you seen as everyone will know about it now.....
Alain, yes GTT is slowly disintegrating and many have migrated over to Tractor Fanatics as well as social media like Face Book. A shame as I like the forum very much and made some good 'cyber' friends on there. I know of several enthusiasts who have sadly passed on in the last year in both the Bolens and Morris LCV world.
Yes his wife died a few years earlier prompting Dave to sell up his collection and go on a tour of the USA in his motor caravan called HMS Rainmaker. He wrote some very amusing blogs about his adventures and catching up with old friends and fellow Bolens enthusiasts.
Just to let you know that sadly Old Buzzard, aka Dave South, from Oberlin, Ohio passed away on Tuesday. He was a very knowledgeable guy on Bolens and will be sadly missed on GTT.
Norm, I would be very interested in seeing how this experiment works as turf tyres are the de rigour for mowing.duties. The ag tyres will leave tread marks on the grass in my experience. Anyway be interested to see how you fare. Photos or no photos...
That's a lovely old mower you got there Chris. I got a small collection of vintage cylinder mowers. The 14" is the ideal size for a town garden.
I have used these mowers in the past and it certainly keep you fit!
Scott, once you get that engine up and running it will motivate you to clean off all that rust and crud on the chassis. These Bolens are incredibly well made and you will be pleased with it.
