Wondering how they are?An old man i know has one for sale ($200-bo)It's a straight/solid machine w/mower deck.He took the engine out sheet metal off(still rolls)and did a "BAD" paint job on the chassis.It would need a new paint job and reasemble.Are the engines on these good?What's it worth?Thanks

Depending on the age of the model, the G-14 should be equipped with either a tecumseh OH140 or HH140... they are the same engine basically, just different names. As far as i'm concerned the engine is very good. It is a solid piece of cast iron with a good carb and i also like the huge mufflers they have on them. The engines are built to last and seem to hold up very, very well against competitive brands of equal status. As far as the tractor goes, it is also a well built machine. Its very simple but it has some nice headlights, a strong as bullets transmission, and they last well. Parts are easy to obtain too... many of the parts are readily avaliable on ebay or sam's/sonny's bolens. The g-14 i bought was originally listed without a seat or any attachments for $200, but i haggled the seller down to $100. I would reccomend this tractor to you if you are looking for a true workhorse and one that is fun to restore.

I'm more than likely not going to get this one.If someone is interested in it please PM me.
They are a good tractor. I bought one a few months back a basketcase for $75 just for the engine. Well I decided to put it back together instead. I've used it to grade a bit of my driveway. I had a large pile of dirt, and stone in front of the blade and the tractor pushed it at half throttle. It's so far a good powerhouse. I haven't had to open it WOT yet but can't wait till the day I do to see what this thing can really do.
