A J Foyt signature riding lawnmower by Bolens

In 1987, ten years after A.J. Foyt won his 4th Indy 500, and 20 years after winning his 3rd race, Bolens unveiled a Limited edition Signature Series Lawn Tractor.

 Randy’s Lawn Mower Repair in Greenfield Indiana, in 2010 tried selling one that had never been used, mint condition.

Who knew people held onto riding lawnmowers for 23 years to try to make a profit on them?

Photo and info due to the incredible lawn mower knowledge of Jay! Photo from http://ajfoyt.wordpress.com/2010/05/15/a-j-foyt-limited-edition-signature-bolens-tractor/ 

reel lawn mowers, vintage and pinstriped. That's all I need to post a cool image

I was a kid and used my aunts once... about ok as far as getting the grass cut... but kinda cool in the pure mechanical fashion of not having any engine
