I guess it could be painted after I finish it! lol! -- MOST of the yellow parts are gone, only the wheels are yellow now. The rest is green, motor is black.
Not sure I will keep the 15.5 hp Kohler on it as the coil might be dead. --- I have an 8 hp Kaw. that might be a lot lighter. Not sure how much hp will be needed since it only has to run the hydro unit and no mower deck also not carrying a person.
It only has to move at a walking speed for my use around here.
Skidloaders do the far out work, but inside the yard fence and small garden they are too big to get around with very easy.
I wanted this to move homemade dirt from piles into the garden and narrow/light unit would be perfect. Could even use my water tote on it and go right down the rows.
