Last one to post in this thread wins!

I had Dad's Toro 200(?) when we moved in. Great for sidewalks but not 60 plus foot long driveways. Neighbor threw out an 8hp Bolens. Needed new engine, idler pullies and belts. Other than oil changes and belts every other year, it was great. Two years ago it started scrapping in the second stage housing. Bearing assy. NLA. Took it apart to fix. Sat in pieces thru one winter. Last January, got a 5hp MTD from the BIL. He moved and was going to leave it at the house. Looked like new so I grabbed it. True to form, I'll be trying to get it going during the first snow storm will my Wife is out shoveling. Why mess with tradition?
