Going to look at a 2072 tomorrow.
 
Listed in the CL finds on OCC, I talked to the owner for awhile today to get an idea of the condition and it needs some work but, doesn't sound too bad. Had a new Kohler 20hp installed in it about 10 years ago. It needs all the average tinkering like carb rebuild, battery, tuneup, and has a broken bracket/spindle where the power steering cylinder hooks to. I don't know much about supers so, are there any tips on what to look out for on this model? I don't have any pics yet but, I'll get some when I get up there.

Thanks.

Take a good look at the transmission mounts, look for oil leaks at the bottom of the steering box/ control valve. Drive shaft. etc. If it's the one up in Keene for $500 it probably a good deal. Pretty sure Patton has the PS bracket.

Thanks Sam, It is the one in Keene. It's 45 minutes away so, I figured Why Not? I've been looking for a super for awhile.

Where are you from? What do you think of our snowstorm? I don't think I'm going to Keene today. I did'nt think we were going to get as much as we did.

If or when you get it get ready for a great time to be had,I've had a few cubs but none of them hold a candle to being as well liked as my 2072.Oh and if you're a tall person,you'll absolutely love all the leg room.Good luck and:WWP:
