I just wondered what you guys thought.I love to 100 and 200 series John Deeres and a friend of mine got this off a guy early this spring,I was jealous then,He got it for a couple hundred bucks A guy had bought it then needed to sell as he needed money so my friend Tyler got it,It has had a recent restore(Its just dirty)That was done really very well.Frame off restore,The engine was completely rebuilt at that time and a new hour meter was installed,It now reads 449 hours I believe.I took the pic of the hour meter and am writing this squinting at the pic because I wasnt smart enough to look before I came home from the shop.If I remember right it was a restore done at votech for the senior project.So I would believe it to be done well.As you can see it has the hitch on it and AG tires that are like new and a nice seat and real nice paint(No over spray anywhere)It also has a custom and nice looking grill guard and has the hydraulic lift,Runs great.Only 1 problem,,,The bolt for the variator backed out and fell out (Still have) so the variator is just laying loose in there.I know Tyler mowed all summer with it at his house and he wants to trade me for the craftsman mower my son had issues with the other day,I repaired the craftsman and he was mowing with me yesterday and it is fine.I would be keeping the AG tires on the craftsman also and installing some turf tires,(Those AG tires will look real nice on the Toro I own)Tylers reason is he wants a hydro for his place ,Not the old gear drive.To me its more than well worth trading but I actually havent worked on a John Deere variator yet and wanted to know if I needed to be cautious.Also he has the other engine shroud and an extra deck for it .Well tell me what you guys think Thank you!!
