Does the mower have any collector value?

If so, I wouldn't touch it with paint. It looks like a nice original.

Your right Clovis - I plan on doing more research before I tamper with it . The one in this link is just the asking price - seems a little high . http://www.ebay.com/itm/Retro-Vinta...934?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cd56a6ad6

That old mowing stuff can be crazy.

As a side note, I once spied a vintage Lawn-boy mower at an estate auction. I paid $50 for it. When I researched it, it was a '48 or '49 model.

I listed it as a 99 cent auction, and had an amazing number of watchers, and the emails poured in from people wanting to buy it. I even had one buyer stop by my house to look at it in person.

I really thought that the mower would bring $400-$500.

I was pretty disappointed when it only brought $200. I had been counting the Benjamin's before they came in, LOL.

Funny thing about the shipping of the mower: I had a USPS clerk refuse to ship it 'since it held gasoline at one time', which is true, according to postal code. I learned then to never tell them that I was shipping a mower or piece of gas powered equipment!!! I actually waited for her to clock out for the day, and went back to the PO to have another clerk ship it, LOL.
