I dunno what that is, but $385 is one hell of a deal!

You must wear shorts when driving lest your pant leg get caught in the drive belt.

Which way does the drive belt spin? If it snaps it's headed directly in your peehole.

Is this in Nebraska? If so, I bought a massage chair of that guy a couple years ago

$385 seems like a reasonable price for a self-propelled ammo can ... ;o)

If ever there was a time to not drive with saggy balls, driving this apparatus would be that time

The seller seems to be missing his for some reason..

It’s just going to overheat without the engine shroud.

It clearly states it is a Lawn Tractor, a National Mower, a GoKArt, a Rat Rod, a Briggs and Strattin and a Dragster.

Cheapest quadbike ever. Ideal for a fence patrol on a remote farm.

Personally I would be welding up a cover/screen for the drive belt.

u/Jeffyhatesthis 1d ago

That engine is going to overheat like a MF without the shroud on it.

u/HiddenFingValley 1d ago

Somehow none of the things listed in the description

What’s in the ammo can?

u/farfly7 1d ago

I mean, it seems pretty straight forward in the description

u/BustaCon 1d ago

That's a big, fat E.R. bill

u/Thin_Confusion_2403 1d ago

That’s a National reel mower with the reels (and the belt guard) removed. They are commercial quality machines, it was the first mower I drove back in my country club greenskeeper days. It was a triplex, agile, plenty of power, used to cut the rough on hillsides and the other places the gang mowers could not get.

The staff was so impressed I was named “MVP of the National League.”

Just some bullshit on wheels.

I think this is a lawnmower racer. They take the governor off a lawnmower, strip it down and race it like a go kart. There was one on RCRs recent car meet video. Looked absolutely terrifying.
