What? the coolest thing I bought at the cedar rapids swap was a lawn mower!!

Would make a great moon rover! To bad we don't have anything that flies there anymore. I guess you could call on the Commies (Russians) to take you up there.

 

Those are all some very cool mowers, But I think this one is my fav, built buy "Radical Ray Erickson" of raytown Missouri. One of the coolest hotrodders I have ever met!. It is powered by a crosley motor and was in several big Shows in the 60's and 70's

 

I have a couple early 60s riding mowers that I need to do something with if I would only quit dragging home more car projects.

 

neat
now do a matching trailer to pull behind yours with redo of factory decals of coarse


would that be pronounced mow-no?

or a play on the mfr. state MO.?

they still are in business !

I just found a running Flymo at a garage sale. It even had a Flymo umbrella with it! Was $25 too much to pay?

 

When could you mow my yard?

 

Well I'm glad to see you got it identified. Now you have the first one finished I guess there's nothing to stop you from doing the red and candied thing on this one. Congratulations sir, job well done!

 

a couple inches could make ya happier this time..

did ya see the link to the ex employee?

 

I remember those kind of starters, you flip the handle over, wind up the spring, then flip the lever on top of the housing, and it cranks the engine.

I would paint black with flames.

 

Nice clipper skipper. That is really sweet, keep us posted if you rehab it.

 

I would just get it running and push it just like it is
I saw a cool retro lookin tricycle at bowlingreen hrr swap meet the other day and thought of this

 

Flat black with red wheels, you'd have one of both worlds.

 

Awesome.

 

Nice rat rod...........

Doc

 

Got any plans for this one?

 

What did you ever hear from them?

BB

 

One would have to have some common sense to operate that. LOL!!!!! Some PITA asswipe would tell ya how dangerous that thing is.

 

How my miles on it

 

I agree you should hot rod this one since you made a custom out of the last one. Bore and stroke the motor, find a mini blower, big & littles, replace tank with Moon tank, etc., etc. Make a great pair.

 

here we go again lol

 

Hey Mark, did you try phoning them yet? Here's their number...
