A 1204, really?

[Alvy]

Had to pick up this 1204 for some reason. Well, I think the reason is I didn't have to pick it up, it was delivered, good price, quite a few hours on the clock but decent and all there. Obviously needs the standard pressure washing and itemized repairs. Have to thank my buddy Tim for somewhat enabling me but I have been looking at some of these style machines that he and Jon have and am a fan. Of course I wish it was a dual stick 1812 or whatever but this will start my 80's style cub addiction.

Nice find, too bad it is a lawn mower not a garden tractor.
You know Mike we have a few real garden tractors with the manly parts on them,
not like that little shifter thingy you have.
Come up here, stop by sometime.

I was told all I have to do is put a "real" rear end and drive shaft in it and then it becomes not a lawn mower. Remember the originals were belt drive too buddy.
And this was a somewhat Lew price including delivery so being the "slacker" that I am I jumped right on it. And who knows, might end up being a flipper. After all I also forgot to mention I bought it for the money condition 44c deck too.
