So here's my new 5238. Vintage 1969 ...not bad for a 40 year old. Deck is perfect. Missing its carb and pull starter and of course its brick shroud.
Anyone can identify those front wheels? Are they LB and do they (LB) make a 7 or 8" set for the rear? KInda like those low profile fronts-if anyone has the matching rears PM me.

I believe Krylon Almond has been mentioned here as a good match for that color. I have a 5235 that I may repaint at some point. I like the tan ones.

Nice mower. I bet its light! I love my 21" 7256, somewhat similar to your 5238 here.

Didn't that mower originally have the white/almond version of the 7260 shroud? I looked up the 5238 on the toro parts viewer and it looks that way.

Nice 19. They sure are light! I used my 5232 last night. What fine mowers these are.

Croc is correct. It had a tan style shroud. Not a brick shroud
