Just absolutely Beautiful!! When I come up with something that is plastic and it fails I get my friend to 3D print it , then I make a mold from it and cast it in aluminum. A bunch of soda cans make the best parts.

Talking about paint jobs. I have an mid-60s Sears custom lawn tractor, your antique professional opinion. Should the tractors stay the original color when repainting, or I was thinking about painting it maroon red and black two-tone what do you think?
pure awsomeness! just got back from a trip up north, pop had like 5 tractors he wanted me to take, but i wasnt able to. there was 2 wheelhorses, 2 mtds and a scotts. managed to talk him into me just junking 2 of them, his old mtd and one wheelhorse which was basically junk cause itd been outside when he got it. he did let me keep the c160 3 hi/ 3 low wheelhorse with a 16hp kohler ( which i REALLY wanted) , my original white LT12 and that scotts. had intened to get em all mowing, but time was limited. i did get to bring some parts i wanted home tho, like the junk wheelhorses hood for my freebie toro wheelhorse in the shed, some motor parts and a pair of deck mandrels. keep them videos commin' ill be watchin! 👍

Where are you located? I'm in NJ. I'm particularly interested in a Super 12 in descent shape with a mower deck. Their are a few others I would consider as well like the smaller custom 10. I'm good on the snowblower side, but a Suburban in good shape with the mower deck, that's what I'm looking for.
Jeff, what paints did you use for the SS16 -- ie: Harvest Gold/Antique White? Where to get the paint? Thanks. Very nice. I have a ST16 I am restoring, can't find the right paint.
