BillyT Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 My dad cut the blades off an old reel type mower, Made me a go cart slowest go cart on earth! Was about a two hp Continental! I used to have to cut the grass around the sidewalk of his salvage yard with a reel type push mower! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/49093-what/page/2/#findComment-364408 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyT Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 The first big truck I ever rode in was a Brockway like that 220 Cummins with an Eaton "bogie 5and 3"!

Popular Post 70mackMB Posted March 13, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 13, 2017 Here you go for a riding reel mower. lt's a Penn. Panzer model made by Penn Lawnmower Co. Notice all of the OSHA approved safety guards on this unit!

fxfymn Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I understand Wal-Mart is looking at this for all of the old ladies to use in their stores. They are going to replace the mower with a floor cleaner so the shoppers can clean up as they move along. Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

Freightrain Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Reel mowers, made for people with common sense. Thus they aren't made for the general public anymore. I still remember a neighbor lady trying to clean a clog out of a std push mower once while it was running. Almost lost her hand. Today's mowers have more safety crap on them then should be allowed by law. Of course there are still people dumb enough to run over their kids with a lawn tractor and not realize it.

But, on the other hand, he might have been like a good friend of mines- he made a "go-cart" out of an old riding mower for his son. It was as fast as a riding mower, but it looked like a real go cart. His son learned to drive on this when he was about 5 years old. So, that might be what made you the fantastic driver that you are today. I learned to drive on a Farmall C when I was 4 or 5 years old, i'm pretty sure that's what made me the mediocre driver i'm is today. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
