Starts with a 5.....

This is fun.... :biggrin2:

I just got the same picture of the casting # plus one that looks like an upside down L and a 2.

Funny, my 5 digit O, 45XXX has the same numbers cast and stamped into it!
I also told him where to look for the serial #

This will be interesting to learn just what the deal is here.

Dude.......

It is NOT what he is claiming. 51000. It's a Feb of '63.

Unless someone thinks that second to last number isn't a 0. Kinda chipped.

Hey!! Mine is older than that!!! Both of 'em!!

Anyone wanna bu.....nah!!!

Jon you're seeming to have original fever all of the sudden. I guess they're growing on you now? I've got it too. I've learned a lot about them lately from books and Yoda aka Lew.

I dunno. They're "growing" on me. I never really wanted one. Honestly, the only reason I jumped on this, was it wasn't far from me and I thought it might be something special...... but alas, it's just another craigslist guy who thinks he has something he doesn't because of a story that he was probably told as a kid, and forgot how it went. :bash2: Oh well. They only made like 65,000 of them. I'm sure I'll find one that I like, for a price I like even better! :biggrin2:

Even after the SN find I can't convince him it is't a '58. :bash2::bash2:

True it is.
do not mess with the cub cadets, did I yes mess with deere, green it made me hmmmmm,

Lew.......

I was thinking it was later by the pictures of the dash tower, but then saw the serial pic which I'm assuming he just added. Come to Florida and we can hunt for the early test units, some were sent down here a long time ago and are local to me, not that they are still around but hey you never know.
