RE: project mower question

I'm not sure what your question is. Just for info, if any of the machines have a Tecumseh engine, that company has gone out of business. Parts are probably still available, but you might have to hunt around. Is the Lawn Boy a 2-cycle engine?
Ariens is now owned by Husqvarna. Craftsman is likely a MTD, Murray, or AYP/Husqvarna product. Lawn Boy has been absorbed by somebody else, but I don't remember who.

One man's trash is another man's treasure!

This is especially true with used lawn mowers :-)
