I know for a fact those 622 Pneumatic Tires are a direct swap for the 3521,421, and 521 hard rubber tires! Hang on to them.

heck yah!

i think the friction disc needs adjustment. reverse barely engages, and i feel the three forward gears could be a little peppier.

he loves it soo much that he won't give me " his " 521.

i hope he's a really good friend, like "he'd help me move a dead body if i asked" good

i'm now 3+ years into tinkering with my hemi-swapped 521. i've enjoyed using it so much that i've splurged on 2 lighting coils and an aftermarket flywheel with magnets. it now has a functional headlight.

he's like a brother to me, i use go over to his house and take his Busa ! now he complains that i haven't been over to ride the Yamaha TW 200 or one of his Minitrails, i'm thinking about buying the TW. i'm thinking about getting a predator motor for my HRT 521

That machine appears to be in pretty good condition. It's a shame that someone would throw it away

All put back together.

Now, all the members of this forum know doggone well if they didn't emboss that on the tires some dang fool would put them on a trailer or something and then sue when the tire blew out and the resulting crash killed somebody.

My favorite "fool story" is the guy who picked up a rotary lawn mower to use it as a hedge trimmer and then sued Briggs & Stratton when it cut off his fingers. And Briggs didn't even make the lawn mower, they only made the engine!

Gaaaa, I hate stupid people!

I would have during the blizzard of ‘78!

I was 2 for that storm. I do remember looking out a window on the first floor of my house and seeing the snow up to the window sill (that's around 5 and a half feet, the wind did help out).

 

[deezlfan]

what kind of snow can a 5/21 really handle?

By volume, the 21" bucket is 87.5% vs a 24" bucket.

I have a 4hp Tecumseh on a Toro 3521 and it does just fine.

Photo link shows people walking in Weymouth Landing, MA following the blizzard of '78. We had to drag sleds to Capitol Market for provisions because none of the side streets were plowed. link

Looks like MOPAR owners weren't afraid to tackle the snow (Dart, plow truck and van, although it looks like it may have been abandoned during the storm)
Possibly a Renault and a GM wagon?

Buddies!

I don't think Renault was sold in the US until the 80's. That didn't last long. The cars were junk.

Larger toro with tinny metal, plastic controls, and miniature augers ONLY $1800!! No thanks, I’ll take vintage.
