I put another light on my snowblower so I can snowblow at night. It's pretty bright! :thumbsup: You can angle the light a little left or right so the third picture is with the light pointed more to the right.

Hi Guys,

I know some of you like to personalize your mowers, so I'm curious to hear about some of the modifications you have made. How have you customized your mower?

Be sure to add pictures and details! :thumbsup:

I had a 1946 Bolens Power Ho, a Mid 80s Gamble store lawn tractor, a Blue Max 11HP engine, an old dishwasher, Boat trailer parts, metal bed frame, and other misc. parts. So I used as much as I could to build an Einachser or walk behind tractor. I am now working on a ride on cart to pull behind it. It has electric start and headlights. I have changed pulley sizes to go faster but I haven't timed it yet for speed. I remember these from the 50s and how versatile they were. I want mine mainly for short run transportation.
If you want to see them in action look up "einachser" on you tube. or einachserrennen for the thrill seekers. The power hoe pictured is what I started with. I will now clean it up and trim it out with new paint etc.

Case 446 that I removed the 16hp Onan and replaced it with a 18hp Lombardini Diesel, here are some some pics of the pre fitment.

I built a bracket on the rear that holds 8 40lb weights and that little tractor will just sink in and pull. I wish I had wheel weights because those are easier on the axles, but you have to use what ya got. I have a set of duals for it, that I used at the old house during the spring to get around.

Being a car guy I I just had to add a few mods. Take a look.

I know this is a nearly 7 year old post, but I'm new to this forum and was wondering are those working exhaust tips or just dummy's. They kind of look like they are from an old volkwagon beetle. Sorry for being so late to the game
