Yep I have another. :smile: Its a 10323 model from '99 with the 6.5 HP 2 stroke duraforce engine. It is also self propelled. This 1 I picked up and its in just as bad a shape as the 1 I just redone, but it runs well. I'll have to order the parts, most of the things that will be needed will be cables controls, and anchors. I'm also gonna get the deck media blasted. Here are some pics.

I just picked up a 10304 model '96 2 stroke 4.75 HP Lawn Boy. It will run only if you feed the primer. I have to get a new pull start anchor (the 1 on the handle) primer bulb, and muffler. This steel deck is very solid. It has very little rust on the deck. I'm gonna post pics.
Steel vs aluminum....and plastic (Honda)
I wonder which is better...
I think the benefits and differences are too small to matter..
Initial cost favors the steel...

To tell you the truth I like the NeXite deck ("plastic" as you call it). It is super durable and grass does not stick to the underside of it!! I have never cleaned it!! :biggrin:
I know little of this "plastic" deck.
I do know that this and other plastics can be one tough material.
I spend many hours mowing, including ...20% of the time and more cleaning the deck of mud and wet grass..
Honda is the only one using this material, TTBOMK.
Its always wet, I am told that the river level and the water table are nearly at the same level...
Last year was worse, many areas of lawn were flooded...its rained every day...or so it seemed..
This year, its every second or third day..
The lawn never dries..
