new house for mikemike

6.5hp 212cc predator $140 plus tax new.

So for 160 I could make a $160 snowblower lol

Guess if it does need an engine, it’s scrap and can be someone else’s curb find.

Will tighten head bolts and evaluate from there.

I picked up a similar looking unit (yard machine). Engine ran good, but transmission is bad.

$99

Every single time you make a new search.

Related items for sale under every hit I click through are always “shipping” items too, regardless of that setting in my search, it seems.

Threw head bolts in. It fired but didn’t run.

One bolt short, has something in the hole - likely a broken bolt. Probably what put it on the curb

I think I still have a 4” trash pump from the small engine shop that we closed like 10 years ago

I’ll take it if it’s up for grab! To fix it up & use for the track in Attica


its brand new if its still floating around
I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

Ran around on 4-5” of ice on Sunday and made some holes. Pond is a steady 6’ deep, takes 15’ or so from shore to reach depth.

Sure would be nice if the floors slopped to the drains at least a little.

Better than the house garage though, that has a 1/2” deep puddle between the two cars.

Have 32-36” whatever for each shop and garage. They get use.

slab heat is only on the other side, that's office side.
slab heat is set as low as it will go, and has done great to keep the building at 43ish if the waste oil goes out.
