I am Crazy to pass on this deal $250. tractor, mower, blower, weights, turbo bagger and lawn cart. the tractor smokes (white) on start up and is a little rough around the edges but not totally roached out. missing right side engine cover. rear tire is soft.

the guy bought a new JD with FEL and just wants it gone. I don't need a mower or a blower (i have walk behind) but it sure would be nice that turbo bagger for leaves.

I guess I came to the wrong place to be talked out of this lol!

No phone numbers will need to be exchanged here. I couldn't resist. I just went and paid the guy. I'm picking it up tonight. It needs a good scrubbing, oil, grease, and some TLC.

I checked the serial # and it's a 1987
can't wait to get it home a get started

I just rolled it off the truck and gave it a quick bath. it smokes a bit, but not sure if that will clear up after it gets warm. I will have keep a sharp eye on the oil level. I plan on going through it in the next week.

to boot it came with chains and the owners manual with original bill of sale for tractor and 8 years later the snowblower, chains, belts etc...

I mowed with a bit and it cuts well. I plan on using the tractor for leaf collection and snow removal. I'll keep my simplicity landlord for mowing.

Looks pretty decent! Easily restorable and great that you have all the original documentation! The 46 inch deck mows great! Your snowblower looks reasonable but could use a little TLC. I'm not familiar with a turbo bagger so hope it's all there for you!

The PO said the power-flo, as JD calls it, needs belts and it appears that it needs some belt guards too. I will take it to the local dealer (where it was purchased) and see if I can't piece it back together.

it's in ok condition but definitely showing 23 yrs of use.
