Anyway, here it is, for better or worse,

One of the nicest before and after stories I have seen on here, and there have been a lot of very nice restorations posted. Great job Ron!
As usual you have produced a nicer than new machine! That's some amazing work! Now just put it in a box and ship it to me... haha!
Wow...thats awesome dude. I wish I was retired and had time to do stuff like that again.:trink39:

The fuel gauge is a very nice touch. I have never seen one before..have anymore?

No, I'm afraid I don't.
I found it in the carb box and it is correct for the mower.
I apologize for calling it skeet. :sorry1:

Like ROBIN would say, "HOLY SHI* BATMAN" / before & after transformation pics. nothing short of a nice restoration miracle.

Excellent job! Looks like new!

You should get that one from PeoriaMurph if still available and restore it. You are very talented.

Thanks Brad, but I think I'm going to take a break from them for awhile.
Four in four months is plenty.
I still have 5 in the back of my mind left to do.
Murph's mower needs to go to someone that needs it and will put it to use.
GTP, it was skeet, no reason to say you are sorry.
Wow Ron that turned out great you do nice work :fing32:
Great. Day. What an amazing piece of work.
not the same deck i take it?

looks great though!

No, that old deck was beyond me to repair it.
This is an NOS deck I painted.
Wow that was fast too! Great work!! Thanks so much for sharing also... great story
Wow, amazing job! Makes me want to get to work on my resto project, though it will never be as nice as this!
Nice work!!! :dancingpa

Does this one get put to work or does it go into the museum?

It won't get put to work, at least not by me.
