OK, here's another deal of the century!! I have a Sabre (by John Deere) Lawn Tractor for FREE! You just pick it up at my house in Concord NC.
The engine runs great, cuts grass OK, drive and blade belt replace two summers ago. New battery last fall. Hydrostatic automatic transmission works great.
Now, the catch...it has a front axle damage where the bearings fell out and the tire fell off. A knowledgable friend of mine says the parts to repair it would not be very much if you can do your own work, and you could always use it for spare parts, etc. It also needs new tires, or you would need an air compressor, as I had to pump them up everytime before mowing.
It has a 46" cut (or may be 48, can't remember for sure) 16HP vanguard engine. It's 10 yrs old, but has been maintained yearly with oil changes, etc and has had at least two or maybe three overhauls at the John Deere dealer.
My buddy says the engine and transmission could be sold out of it for a few hundred bucks, so you might be able to make a few $$ off it.
Can you give my "Mr Green" a good home?? I just need it out of my yard where it is sitting since the tire fell off...
