Did I get a good deal?
« on: July 26, 2007, 12:40:23 am »
I recently purchased 14 mowers from an old small engines repair shop for $140 bucks $10 bucks a mower. They are all old craftsmans that are pretty small but they all have. Peerless 400 series transmissions in them. I have taken all of the transmissions out and cleaned them and all of them are the same 401A or 400 model numbers. I just want to know if I bought something that was a good investment.

Sweet cause my friends and I are gonna build two mowers apiece between all of us and there is five of us and I plan on building three or four. I wish I would have thought about selling them sooner but I already promised my friends most of them to build theres with.

There are some modifications necessary to make them hold up. You might want to contact Don Gienger at G-Team Racing about those.
