Yep, she just needed some TLC mechanically in great shape, well except for no reverse. But that was an easy fix just cost a little more than I expected. This little tractor is definitely a workhorse though, just wish I knew the accurate hours on it, the meter is stuck on 1719.9That picture at the bottom of your threads is so sad. What a lucky machine to have you buy it!
Yup, fixed my neighbors chain saw last night. He got a new to him saw. Used it and decided to change the chain. He fought to get the gaurd off the saw, but didn't realize the safety lock for the chain was engaged. He couldn't get the cover back on. He offered to pay me last night. Told him not to worry about itMy elderly neighbor's Craftsman lawn tractor has a transmission issue, and is inoperable.
Mowed his 1.5 acre lawn. He had a heart attack last year, and I mowed it for a month or two while he was out of commission.
When I asked if he wanted me to mow, he said OK, as long as I can pay you.
My response back was "My father would kick my ass if I was paid to help a neighbor." That was the same thing I told him last summer.![]()

Just an update - RE Agent held to her word and new owner of the property stopped here this morning. It is my neighbor dairy farmer.Just talked to the Real Estate Agent doing the deal across the road. She's another neighbor, too. Good thing about small towns!
She said the prospective buyer really has no interest in the piece on my side.
Good thing, maybe get 2 acres for a deal. I'd be happy with that, and maybe the seller will as well!![]()
This is my back yard, so it will fit in well. Other property is just to the left of this picture.Will need to clear some Planning Board stuff for subdivision, but we should be good to go!
Thanks, Bill! I'm excited! You said it right; he and I both get what we're after.Sounds like a steal, everybody gets something they want, great deal all around, congratulations!

Literally made a deal with the map on the hood of the Kubota for the 2 acres on my side. He had a foot on one front tire - mine on the other!
$3,000 cash deal, and I mow the house lawn across the road for the rest of the season! He's happy, and so am I!He got the 10 acres of prime corn ground out behind the house he's been after for 40 years. WOO HOO!!
