That's a good one to start with. I like square bodies! How much can you get it for?

Yeah those craftsman LTs are a good place to start. Now the questions are: Do you like its body style, engine, tranny? What's its condition? And what amount of "suckage" will happen to the wallet? Mud mower build - Page 2 1098998679

But seriously, If you got alota parts and your pretty good with a welder, then the condition don't really matter.

$120 about.

@Crazy_Carl
About $120. I like square bodies too.

It looks like it’s in great condition and it’s supposedly runs and drives.

Its not a bad deal if it does not need a bunch of work to get driving, they are a good start, what brand motor does it have?

@Crazy_Carl. I can probably get the tractor for $100. I like square bodies too. It’s a 12.5 hp I/C gold Briggs and Stratton industrial commercial engine

Yeah briggs is the way to go. They're easy to work on, and parts are cheap. If it's basically ready to start modding from the get go, then $100 ain't bad. If it's got a 12.5 briggs, then I'm guessing it has a 6 speed tranny?

$100 and it's running and driving...sounds like a good buy to me Mud mower build - Page 2 2731072446
