Re: Got a Deere
You'll see that locating original LF dashes that aren't cracked is getting tougher, I have three cracked ones on my shelf and just found an original non cracked one for my LF 6 months ago. Your handle bars are in nicer shape than mine and your tie rod looks straight so thats good. Looks like you need a different recoil handle. Almost all of the throttle blocks that I have, have small cracks by the setscrew but some guys put some dabs of epoxy on them to help hold. your hood looks good and seat as well nice! I have more JD skeletons out back than I do sitting in the garage but I think thats how it usually goes lol! My two that I re did are just riders far from perfect lol but fun! what are your plans for this ol girl we'd all like to hear!

Re: Got a Deere
I plan on cleaning it up, The paint is really good on this one and this will be my rider.I might be gluing the dash together if I can't find one. And for the recoil handle I noticed that right away lol. Someone stored it in side for 12 years or something like that and it only has 2000 miles.
