There are 2 actually. The orange one is an early 70s (I think) 608 small frame L&G that Dad bought sometime in the early 80s. I spent many hours as a teen running this mower for our yard, around the farm, 2 rental property yards, and later even driving it up the road to the neighbor's farm that I worked for when their JD just wasn't cutting it (pun intended) anymore. It also ran year round with a snowblower(I still have) and hauling firewood in the winter. It is on it's 2nd engine and 3rd transaxle. Slightly less visible but there hiding behind the XT is my 1968 B110. Dad and I bought it together just to have it when I was in my early 20s. It came with the mower and snowplow. Dad bought a tiller later but never got it mounted. The deck rotted out and the tractor started faltering so Dad let me have it. I bought another deck, new gas tank, new head gasket, tune-up, and carburetor rebuilt to get it running like new again. Also bought the rest of the pieces needed to complete the tiller and have that useable once again. Runs year round for me yet mowing and plowing snow when needed.

Thanks! Yes, she is an impressive beast all by herself never mind parked next to the others. As is, she is just shy of 13K lbs. Dad always referred to her as "The Cat" as in Caterpillar because she was damn near unstoppable. I managed to get her stuck twice in my life. Once with her 5 bottom plows and once with the manure spreader in winter. Both times, she got herself out once I unhooked the equipment from her. Then a log chain was utilized to pull the equipment back out to solid ground in order to hook everything back up. Dad admitted to only once ever getting her stuck and it took 2 neighbors with their 150hp FWDs to get her out.
