Once again, I can't stop myself from checking out "graveyards" behind mower shops.

This week's finds - three neat old MTD's.

The first is a "re-conditioned" (but not restored by any means) and for sale for $100. It's an MTD and says Hechinger's on it. 21" cut, 3.5 hp B&S engine. Model # 119-422R372/D289B. Other number on it is 06-351282.

But the really *interesting* ones were out back and can be had very cheap, like scrap price. Both need rehab and restoration. I *think* they're self-propelled.

One is a 20" cut, MTD Hechinger with a 3.5 B&S engine. Model # 129-352R372/L198B. Other number on it is 06-425532.

The second one is an MTD but it doesn't say Hechinger on it. Also has a 3.5 hp B&S, 21" cut. Model # 129-476R300 / C219B. No other numbers under that. The kinda cool thing about this one is it has a lever on the rear part of the deck for adjusting mowing height (instead of on the wheels).

The place is called Besley Implements, Mineral, Virginia and their phone # is 540-894-4450.
If you want to call and ask about any of these mowers, ask for the owner to discuss what he'd want for them.

I live about 20 minutes from there.
