1949-50 Bolens Ridemaster

My very first Bolens Ridemaster. Late 1949 or early 1950 model.

that is a very interesting old machine, but then I am a big fan of the older Bolens.

Fantastic machine and it is great that it is in original condition

[@victorstaner1141]

are you interested in selling it?

[@wilberj1614]

Your missing the reverse disk on the back of the engine pulley and the other one looks very used... I would not try backing up with it till its fixed.

Jerome, I have the other parts one yet, if I send you pics can you tell if its on there or not?

the reverse mechanism seems to be very much like that of a Wheel Horse Rotiller.
