My first attempt at a re-furbish. I was given a 127 that runs and has an electric lift. Hood is rusted and pitted pretty badly and the splines on the hydro shaft where the handle connects are stripped. Other than that it's in pretty decent shape. My son and I are tearing it down and going to strip it down, fix a few things and try our hand at painting it. I have read many of your posts about what to do and not to do. This is the first time that I have torn one down and I am not the most mechanically inclined person around. This will be a slow process but should be fun. It seems like pictures are really hard to post here in proper sizes unless someone can clue me in on an easier way. I'll try to get some on here and keep you all updated. Thanks for all the help that you all are.

Brian: The fun part is taking them apart. Tag and bag! A Magic Marker or Sharpie is your best friend, right now. Feel free to email me any pics you want posted. Kraig led me to Vueprint, bless him. This could become quite an interesting winter, here.

Brian--I was just scrolling through some of the old refurb threads and I saw yours. I checked your profile and saw you were on here just a couple of days ago. Any updates or word on the 127 project? Just curious! I'd be happy to email you and tell you how I upload my pix for the forum...
