peterinbrooklyn 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2010 I'm really impressed @ how well it powers the 42" bolt together deck! It still has the original briggs model 19 7hp. And it has a lot of power. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thedaddycat 1 Report post Posted May 14, 2010 OK, I used to be a lot more up on all the little differences but that sure looks like a 725 PTO engagement lever to me. It's different than the one on my 1960 Wonder Boy 700 and as I recall that was the only year that had that style of PTO lever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZippoVarga 39 Report post Posted May 15, 2010 That Squire is in AMAZING Original shape!! I got my Squire a couple years ago with the bolt together deck and it's one that I enjoy using the most of all my large frames. I have yet to mow with it, but it has blown snow, graded one of my drives and plowed snow/dirt and nary a hiccup. Mine is a re-power with a gold series 8hp Cast Iron. Enjoy it! It sounds to me like it will be around for many more years to come. GREAT SCORE!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
