2018 Build-Off Discussion

Yeah I have no clue how old mine is either. The data plate was missing as well as the engine shroud when I got it. Its all steel though, except for the tires and the seat. Got a 2300 too.

Looks like they did not change the frame much. Looks a lot like my 82's frame too.

Wonder when the Murray frames changed. My GT frame is pretty identical to my LT frame. Seems like they saved as much money as they could by only producing one style frame at one time.

Craftsman- "MUTT" (part II) - "MUTT" (part I)
Wheel Horse 414-8 (‘24 Buildoff)
