A man stopped in yesterday, and asked me if i take old lawn tractors, as a donation. Of course, since my stable of old tractors has been diminished somewhat, i told him i do that.

So, off we go with my trusty Ranger PU, to his house.

He opened the garage door, and rolled out a nice, clean, not damaged, showroom condition, silver Craftsman tractor!

Said it would run, if i could get it started.

Now, i have learned that you don't test the gift horse by riding it around, so we pushed it up into my truck, we shook hands, and home i went!

I checked it over, found nothing amiss, so setting the controls, and turning the key to "ON", i shorted across the solenoid---and it ran! Well, no use wasting a full tank of gas, i mowed my whole yard with it!

I like folks who don't have much knowlege of things mechanical!

But, he keeps his '65 Mustang in tip-top shape. And his Isetta Coupe! The kind with the door in the front of the body!
