| Hey guys, Been a while since ive done anything mower related but i have finally started a new build and yes i do still have my old build which everyone asks about. So here it goes, My current build is a late 80s craftsman. It has a 16 hp vanguard V-twin engine, 6 spd standard transmission, I have big plans for this beast. This is what its got so far. -Pulley swap (5 inch front- 5 inch rear) -Locked transmission -custom front end which will be IFS soon enough. -ATV tires https://s802.photobucket.com/user/arild365/Big%20blue/story | |

| I have 2 similar tractors, with that big ugly hood... but with them big tires, they actually look pretty good. I always knew bigger tires made things look better... I might not dismantle mine just yet. | |

| Nice mower! I think big tyres make anything look good. Makes them seem more aggressive. | |
