Big Sale Is On - UPDATED 03-26-26

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

Lawn ranger build was created by Bert
I’ve been working on a mut Ranger and today I got to take a victory lap around the yard :smile2
It’s a 68 ranger frame, 64 deck, lift arm and fenders. The dash stand and hood are from a 633 or so I was told and the gas tank is from a 701.
Oh I used one of Glens 701 plastic dash’s and the engine is from an 856.
I still have to find a few more parts to finish it off but it seems promising :woo

Looks really nice and straight Bert, what are your plans for her? :thumb1

A lot of that tractor looks like a 62-63. The hood, gas tank, tower, side covers, rearend, rear wheels, and rear fenders are all correct for those 2 years. I don't know what the adjustable lift assy came off of but I don't think they ever used them on any Lawn Rangers. :confused1

:thanks Geno, the plan is to get it in a little better shape mechanically and hopefully add the wider newer ranger rear wheels with fluid so it’s not so tipsy for my better half to mow with.
I agree that it looks like a 62-63 and that was only because the 64 and up don’t have room for the starter gen setup.
I started out with a 64 and used it as parts for this build. I’ll look for a pic of what I started with to share :confused1
As far as the adjustable lift setup, that’s what fit the holes that were in the dash stand so I just went with it
:)
