Yea, any of my murrays dont have much plastic (1982 GT-16 4-speed cast iron tranny, and 1997 widebody LT)
Bye Bye Murray built No Name LT
It was sold as soon as someone came to look at it. I let it go for $325, and since I only had about $65 in it, I thought that was a nice round figure to sell it for.
It was truly a very good example of, what taking good care of a Lawn Tractor, can look like after 26 years. The new owner was a mechanic by trade, and was in his late 20's, who appreciated the heavy construction of it compared to the newer LT's on the market. I was amazed that someone his age, could appreciate the lack of plastic this had in the manufacturing process.
So another fine machine, that I am proud to have been able to see and refurbish it back to a good working condition. The mechanic that bought it was very impressed with it. As I was when I got it.

OH Contraire ! The 2005 Classic I picked up does have that! RIO was apparently added in the last couple of years, for sure on the 2005's. They might have been called on the carpet about that safety feature being absent, and added it in the late years.
Zoom in on the gear shift. You can see the mounting plate for the safety switch, which with the gear lever in Reverse has the button engaged.
