I used one just like this for many years as a teen in the sixties. Amazing to see one working again. I still remember most of its operation, a very clever and well built piece of machinery. Sure built muscle when it got stuck on wet grass on a hill!

@esslar1 yea it didnt like the wet grass mutch it was pretty heavy i should have kept it i ended up ebaying it some one came all the way from texas to ohio to get it

I have an opportunity to obtain an old triplex, vintage 1960. I don't think it has run for decades, but has been kept in a shed. How much did you get for yours? (If you don't mind me asking) Thanks!

@stevemanda1 you wont beleve me but i picked it up at auction for $35 just as it is in running condition no one knew what it wasso no one bid on it ... i think i got $400 out of it
