~ Unidentifiable Mower ~ : Zero markings & Labels Removed -- Not even sure of Make?
So, I inherited an old mower; it worked for about 45 minutes and I mowed my front yard with it. But it then had a belt break. I dropped & detached the deck, and can now get to the drive belt.
Problem is though, this old riding mower has zero identification. I have looked everywhere -- and I cannot even tell if this is a Craftsman or a Murray. Lol.
Previous owner stripped it, and painted flames on the front hood. Plus it is probably a 70s model, I think. I lean toward Craftsman too, by the way.
Sooo, I saw a previous thread wherein you helped someone identify a riding mower. I can tell you it has a 400 cc Briggs & Stratton Engine.
But please tell me exactly what I should provide to you -- and I will work to acquire that info.
I really appreciate your help; I searched on Google images search for hours -- nothing looks right! Closest I could see is a Craftsman 1978 Roper Riding Lawn Mower -- but it is not 100%. But it does look similar in the grill, and lights configuration in the front.
In sum, I need to obtain the exact year, make, & model # so that I can buy the right belts.
Thank you,
Brandon
p.s. I needed to recreate my post -- as my account would not allow me to reset the password! Tried many times. Something is up with the password reset feature of this forum. Just an FYI.
*** I CANNOT FIND ANY MARKINGS OR NUMBERS ON THE MOTOR OTHER THAN THE SNAPSHOT INCLUDED. LIKEWISE, I DIDN'T SEE ANY LABELS ON THE TRANSMISSION -- ARE THEY HIDDEN SOMEWHERE IN PARTICULAR. ***
LET ME KNOW WHAT ELSE TO PROVIDE! THANKS AGAIN PEOPLE - SOOO MUCH!
