    I vote for rustoration or restoration. All the original parts are still there and working. Shame to toss them to beef it up, or to mod it for racing. 🙂

    Great to see someone working on a lawnranger MK2/ ranger. They are really cool little horses that don't get the love they deserve, they might be small but there great fun.
    I'd personally restore it with the deck back on as you never see them restored in good condition.

    Many years ago, we had a similar mower made by Huffy. 7-Horse, 30” single blade. It was built differently though. You pushed the right-hand pedal to engage the transmission. It had a three-speed too. It was our first rider.

    Very cool project. Glad to see it running and moving.

    I think a nice little race mower would be really cool and keep the original motor and the rear end. Some agriculture, rear tires would give that little thing a nice stance. Great video always enjoyed.

    👌👌👍👍 Restore it to original, or let someone else have it. Restomod or race mower would be pointless. Thanks for the video.

    Love the older mowers...no electronic crap on them and none of those damned safety devices.

    I've been watching all your videos this pass week and stumbling upon it. Really enjoy your content. I could be interested if you could do a quick overview of how you setup your blast cabinet. Thanks

      Thanks for the kind words! I ended up getting the cabinet from Harbor Freight and did some mods to convert it from from siphon feed to gravity feed. Followed some forums posts I found on google.

    That opening being to big on the Gasket can cause air leaks and lean issues

    Race mower for sure, it doesn’t have a deck so it can’t mow. It’s small so it would be impractical for you to use.
