Here are some picture of my finished product. Sandy Lake
was great at helping replicate the hubs for the dual set up. I think they
made about ten pair of them based on the actual specs from Simplicity, They
fit perfectly. For about $225 I thought it was a steal. The help with
pulling power and more importantly they look great. That's my two year old
son Drem at the helm with his Nanny from Poland. Now all I need are
decals. Anyone got extras. I can't pay much my wife took my check book
after she saw what the restoration cost me. I rebuilt a blower and mower
deck as well.
The mounts I made from shelf brackets and the lights were
$12.95 light from auto zone. They look good to me and work great. Let me
know what you think.

My name is Mark Mohn and I have been looking at the site for about a year.
Its a great diversion from work and it got me interested in purchasing a
Simplicity Landlord. After much consideration I purchased a 1964 Model
314. What a classic.
Any way, I have been restoring it for about a month.
Actually, I have been going at it hard because I also obtained a snow blower
with it and after last years snow falls I have absolutely no intention of
ever shoveling again. I thought you would like to see where I am in my
project. I must say your site made my restoration project possible.
Otherwise I would have been lost. Each and every aspect of your site's
members and information played a key role in my success. Thanks.
As I have never done anything like this before. I found it
to be a lot of fun and a huge pain in my back side. My kids will love this
thing. My wife thinks I'm nuts. She might be right.
