I like the lawn Mowers. Very nice

The dash is well done. What is the light on the ash tray? Brake failure light

Nice dash, looks good. What gauge functions do you have?

I have a Sears lawn mower that is very similar to your green one. The best mower I've had. It needs a tune up though. Has an ignition miss.

personally I like the honda there. We've had one in the past and it always started right up, alot better than anything we've had with a briggs, not putting down briggs though. They make a great motor too. Oh ya, did you just put some kinda covering over the pod there, well the metal holding the gauges? I like how you worked that into the middle part of the dash.

Sence this turned to Mowers, Has anyone had/heard of, a Hahn Eclipse? We had one back in the '70s and it was the best mower ever. Standard size, Al deck painted yellow, Self propelled with the engine over the rear axel. I would pay dearly for one now.

Nice car too. Wish mine looked like that.

Hey, that looks like a race car!!!! You might want to rotate the tach CC a little so the red-line area is at the bottom which makes it easier to see if you are driving at auto-x's ot DE events. Good job.
