I was going to ride 90 miles to pay 200 $ for a bush hog that needed work then a neighbor gave me this

and this big vise

and this v8 ford motor

and a dryer and ac for scrap and tomorow he has an old mower and mower trailer he is going to give me . the bush hog brand is a hardee panther its a five footer it needs some work but it was free. I love it when a plan comes together tomorrow I start working on it I will post pics as I go.

It would mean more to that neighbor to see you get some good use out of it than to sell it. Might be the deciding factor of giving you anything else.

What is that bush hog hooked to? Did he give you a tractor too? Anyway, good deal. Even if you need to buy a gearbox, you saved money. Well worth fixing it.

if you do any repairs or fabrication YOURSELF, keep the vice, it's the extra hand you always wanted, and no insurance or feed bills. You were ready to spend $200 and you did, just differently.
