Has the makings of a 'looker ' when you shine it up.

I think they are pretty cool. That will be quite a show piece when completed.

Update Yesterday: I pulled the motor off.Pulled all the engine tin off and painted it Rustoleum High Heat Semi-Gloss. Today: I cleaned alot of the grease and dirt build-up off.Put the deck on. Started re-assembling the engine tin and did some more painting. Thats about it for now I'm going to send the motor to a local lawn mower repair shop for a coil. Korey

Doesn't that mower use a Clinton motor?

The first year 1957 had 3.6hp & 4hp cliton engines. After that the next years had Briggs engines

My Dad bought a Wonder Boy 400 new around 1962. My brother now has the machine in northern NJ. Does anyone know offhand if transaxle parts might still be available for these machines?
