This was before they figured out that if you put a 4th wheel on it, they weren't nearly as bad about flipping over!!!!

I'm sure a lot of people have these in there barn's or garages just waiting to be repaired. There should be a lot of parts around for them.

knowing you justin you could probibly get it running if you just cleaned the carb. just pray to god there's no plastic parts in it. i have a lawn tractor that was brand new but wont run because the stale gas ate 80% of the carbs plastic innerds.
