Just about done with the Original
This one was a winter project. It was such a cold one in Ohio this year that I decided to take my time. It turned out to be a decent restoration. Once I add the muffler, reflectors and a few minor adjustments I should be ready to start my next project....possibly a 100.

I have got to get my act together and get one of these to work on. That looks really nicely done and good options to boot !

Re: Just about done with the Original
Nice Job; I hope you have all the parts to mount that nice deck under your Original. Are you going to use the Deck? Those decks will turn when the foot lever is disengaged. There is a guard that is usually broken off that kept people from putting their foot in the discharge side (I actually found a NOS for my deck).

Re: Just about done with the Original
Hi Geezer
Been a long time. Yes, the deck is ready to attach with all the parts. I don't hook up the deck drive belt to the front engine pulley, I just hang it on the front grill with a white tie strip to have it there if needed. I have had several that the blade continued to spin with it disengaged. I plan on posting a picture of it with the deck when attached.
