Howdy!

Sounds like you have a nice Toro! We'd love to hear more about it. Also, if you have the original or early replacement bias ply tires, they should have TFD (Toronado Front Drive) on them. If so, HANG on to them, regardless of condition. They can be worth a few bucks to somebody if not for historical significance to the TOA archives. Pictures REALLY help a LOT!

We'll help you get it it going again for sure. Good for you!

Best Regards,

Sparky
