1979 Sears Yard tractor has been out of service for 10 plus years. I have no idea how long it had been sitting when I acquired it, and has been sitting 10 years since I owned it.
I love the old garden tractors, Onan is a good motor, I had them in small skid loaders in the 80's.. I have 4 garden tractors, 2 IH Cubs, a Ford, and a Honda.
