I have 2 of those mowers. I was never sure of the model number until now. One was given to me by an old neighbor when he moved to town. Im sure the only time its ever been outside was when he was using it. He ran it with a Farmall H. The other one I bought at an auction to save it from the scrappers! Its in good shape, but is missing the swathboard and stick. I plan to copy the other one and have what it needs to be complete.
I'm impressed how good the condition of the gaurd, and apparently original pitman is . Thank you.
As far as I can tell, that is the original pitman arm. It would never have survived if the mower hadn't been stored inside all these years.

Glad you got some value out of the video. Thank you for saving some old iron from the scrapyard!
I buy older farm equipment to save it from the scrapers also.
