Wow, that one is worth rebuilding an engine for.

Very nice!

I will be doing some engine rearranging/swapping between the 127 I have that runs and a 126 that I have not yet had time to evaluate yet.

I will pull this windowed one and do a quick tear down before the power washing it got just before I picked it up does further damage inside.

I'm loving his motivation on how far he traveled one way. I will be bummed if its south of my neck of the woods but I doubt it. Options are killer, well worth the $ and effort. Can I ask where you got it from mr. bond? My guess is either north or west of p cola?

Being it was 375 miles away, I did not bother to call. After 2 weeks he updated the ad with some more pictures. I then saw things I wanted to put on my unrestored, ugly but operational 127. So I then called and asked him what amount he was hoping for that would make him happy.
He said $200 and I said sold, and I sent him a $50 deposit via paypal.
I tried to get him to strap it to a pallet and drop it off at a Fastenal store about 8 miles from his house but he would not.
So I spent all day on the road to go get it home.
The reason for the $200 price is due to the new window in the engine block in behind the starter-generator.
In case you ever wanted to know.....yes a 127 with 42" deck installed will fit into a first generation Tahoe!. But you have to remove the steering wheel. :biggrin2:

:HeadScratch::HeadScratch::HeadScratch:
:HeadScratch::HeadScratch::HeadScratch:
:HeadScratch:I'm in disbelief....how did you get it to fit? Where did the wife sit (on the roof?:biggrin2:)? How would you explain that to an officer if you were pulled over---"I saw him stranded along the road Occifer,.....uh Officer...:beer2:". I just don't believe it.......but I'm glad that you got it with great options!!
