    Robust looking outfit, is that Bolens about 3O years plus old. I don’t see many modern machine being up to much at that sort of age.

    Brand new in 1972. I dont think it had run for at least 25 plus years when I brought it. The guy who I got it from seemed to think it had been in a barn down Cornwall area near the sea. Hence why it so rusty. I was going to give it the works, but decided I wanted a tractor in working clothes in running order to use for what it was built for. The deck is from my other Bolens as the deck it came with was shot & would have taken alot to sort.

    How many modern ride ons will make it to this age??
