    American Pickers haven't stopped by yet....

    When I first bought my house I realized how little I had.......16yrs later, looking around wondering where all this crap came from.

    The way I view it, it’s not collecting junk, it’s raw material inventory. And one less trip to the hardware store… someday in the future.

    Unfortunately no. I heard @OldSchlPunk start his and last night at it sounds much better than the one I put in.

    Interesting. Horrible for both top speed and MPG's I have to wonder what the ratios in the transmission are.

    You Kentucky guys, you're not the only ones with starter issues. I had to get a starter kit when the gear decided to fly off when the retaining cap broke. The kit cost a whopping $30.00.
    Front axle is bent, no hood, most of dash plastic is missing, choke lever is broke away from dash and a few other things.
    My old Murray may be old and ugly, but she runs. I use it for cutting my trails.
