I have both of these mowers. My 20" is running. I am working on the 24. I picked them up for free in th last year. I too am looking for some parts. The hood is missing off of my 24.

Thats the lawnmower I learned how to cut grass on. My dad still has it. It is still going and he did the same thing he yanked that self propelled contraption off also. I wished they still made them. I don't know how old it is but he has had for 36 years in 2010 and bought it used.

Bought mine used, 29 yeara ago, (in 1980,) a 24" cut, with 20" back wheels. First thing I did was yank off the self-propelled contraption, which lightened it up about 10 lbs., and made it a ABSOLUTE BREEZE to push. Replaced the old Clinton 5HP with a 3.5 Honda, sometime in the mid '90's. If they were still being made, I would go buy a new one just like it, tomorrow.
