I have an opportunity to buy a used 5 foot "Bush Hog" type rotary mower. The current owner bought it used and believes that its 25-30 years old and doesn't know what brand it is. I stopped by to look at it today and it looks to be a solid unit - heavy metal! There are a couple of minor holes in the top of the deck due to rust - but doesn't appear to be a problem. Apparently the gearbox is still holding gear oil well. He told me that he puts oil in, not grease. The owner is asking $150 for it. Is this a reasonable price for a mower of this vintage? Is there anything in particular that I should consider before making an offer? Thanks for the help! - Steve in MD IH 2424
