Haven't talked about price yet, but I know I can get it cheep. Has a hydro, and a good deck. Engine is blown up. Tescumbag. Go figure. I did just happen to build that 10 horse Tescumseh tho..... hmm. I'm thinking about doing that instead of building the LGC. What says the forum?

Its a peerless 2300 with varidrive though. Dont know what hydros they came with but they definitely seem to be stout enough tractors.

MST 206 would be my guess. I found a sheet that says Peerless but not the verion. Possibly a 920 or 930... I don't know much about them.

I was looking it said it could have a Peerless 820 or 2300 but that didn't seem right Yeah, it doesn't have a 1 inch axle. I'd say one of the 9X0 ones.

I mean idk, probably at least 150lbs if i had to guess. Info is out there. They are stupid heavy for what little power they put out.
