    If your hair falls out when you mow, Try plutonium instead.

    COOL Mower!!

    i was at an auction the night before it started, picked out ''a old magnesium'' push mower. a friend of mine went to the auction the next day, he bid on it for me & i told him the old 60s magnesium mower with crasftsman 'embossed on the deck. he bought it for 6 dollars alright.

    wrong MF'er & the ugliest 80s mower i had ever seen. :eek:
    it did run. 2 different sized wheels, front all bashed in, etc... --- i guess i didnt need that cool mower & he must have thought the same!!
