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.

Thanks again for the encouraging comments everyone, this project is just plain fun. I wish I could save them all, but I will leave that for Geno...

Motor, your work is amazing. I have enjoyed following along the photo journey of your restoration, and would love to have one of these myself some day. I have a baby girl that has fallen in love with the red things in the garage and sheds. Literally walks right by my Deere zero turn, and heads straight for hers :rolling3

You right it is very nice and I to am short on patience....and last night I saw a ad on TV for a Honda walk behind mower with a speed selector and I think why.
I have a toro walk behind that has 3 speeds and in third gear you are almost running and when I do use it most of the time its in neutral or 1st.
I guess it matters to some people how fast they can cut there grass.....Now on the 416-8 I don't mind going a little faster but I sure aint chasing a push mower.
