Nice work. Any idea on how long it has been sitting?
Nice find. The sickle mower is a great find. I think, I would immediately start on this project.

Colton there are other kinds of sickle bar mowers out there. Mine is an old Cunningham walk behind I picked up for $25. It is powered with a 99CC HF $79 engine on it. It works surprisingly well. Roger

Glen, that is beautiful! Will look nice restored, but it is only original once!
Glen,
Nice find. You guys out in the midwest have all the luck.
Roger,
I just brought home a Jari sickle bar mower similar to yours from my parents estate. Haven't tried it yet.

Neat , Glen . CLASSIC barn find !!! Have fun !
Glen that is good to hear about the engine. Sometimes I am amazed at how just a little attention will bring these machines alive. I will say that I agree with Terry... I would start on the RF first over the 318.


I will be looking forward to the progress.

Well got the 110 cleaned up and the mower removed and washed here are a few pics















actualy got all of the gts cleaned up the 2 140's had not been washed yet since i got the so all in all was a good day cleaning.took the carb off and its soaking in cleaner and the tank has laquer thinner in it i'll swish it arround for a couple days before i drain and finish cleaning it seems the laquer helps to dissolve the varnish of the dead gas ty all for reading my posts Glen

Thought i would update the status of the 110. Got the carb cleaned points checked and adjusted. We had fire so i turned on the gas a lil choke and boom it runs. A bit loud with no muffler but it runs well no smoke so now time to pull it down and restore it.
Congrats are getting it to run. I cant wait to see the progress of the restore.
Great find, and great project. You really found a gem. And to top it off, it runs! Good going!
