OK not something I would have thought anyone would have said about that one.I think it is very poorly done.Everything has just been painted,look at the corrosion under the base.The handle bars have just been rubbed hard with steel wool.That's a sad repair to the catcher as well.I bet the pictures make it look better than what it is. Defiantly not worth $200.Your not trying to drum up a sale for this person are you? Sorry for asking but it's not worth that kind of money.

mmmm I think it could be safely said that the owner has "over capitilized" on this one  or maybe things on the east coast are easier to move in that price range? (or someone is testing the market???  )

It's not real tidy as Joe said it has been beaten up, it hasn't had a good life.It's very knocked about,and it's really not worth that much.This is the second time it's been on for that price and I'd be surprised if it even sells.For that much anyway.

Isn't it amazing how many things can be covered up by a fresh coat of bright and shiny paint. A real case of 'buyer beware' here.

What I can't understand is if you go to that much effort,why not go that extra bit further and really make it something special?

Hi Jeffrey, mate, this guy is just trying to get the biggest profit from this pile of junk. A pretty paint job does not make a good mower...but it will sucker people in...

Ya what? Your kidding? It's not worth that you would just be getting yourself more problems that what you would need.I really think you wouldn't be happy.I bet you if you looked with your own eyes you would shake your head.It's really not a good one.You could build your own better, for less.After all every one has said and you still want it?Sorry I can't understand that.Best of luck though.
