Hello Everyone,
Posted a message on the "Lesser known classics" page and then I saw there was a garden tractor page.
I was looking for info on a swisher ride king that I own. I have been using it for a couple of years and am curious about how old it is.
I wrote the Swisher customer service dept and a person wrote me back and said they had worked for them a long time but never heard of my model number. She requested I send in a photo. I ran outside and took a picture and emailed it. She wrote back and said she was very suprised at the picture. It was made in the 50"s and they didn"t have much info on them. She said she was going to keep the photo and thanked me for proving that there were some of these still being used today. I told her I would clean it up and take a nicer photo for her. I also suggested that they use me in an ad for swisher. (I doubt they take me up on that one.) I feel I"m driving a piece of history around the farm. Now I"m curious what it"s worth. I need a new big mower and I may try sell it to help pay for a new one if it"s worth anything. (My kids will be mad, they love this mower) Any suggestions on a Value? I haven't been able to find any for sale to compare to.
Thanks
Nobel
