Was just out putting a floor in place for the next shed, and realized the old 1949 Oliver 88 tractor is also not maintenance free. So I guess it is no47.
I don't even know how many lawnmowers and other small engines like log splitter, wood chipper, chain saw, generator, pumps etc are out there. It surprises me how I even keep going what does run.
For me, the hunt for the parts and pieces is the best part of the hobby. As soon as a restoration is completed, it's down hill from there. I have seen early restorations of mine later sell thru others. One of them, a M38A1Cdn2 w/w, was featured in one of the restoration magazines as an unrestored, unmolested example. I actually built that one out of pieces from several Jeeps.
