That is so incredibly cool! What a simple and properly-sized design. Nothing like a garden tractor!

I'm not sure why they stopped making these wind up starter except maybe because they worked?

My father had a 49 pontiac 2 door coupe.😊

Very cool

Bruce Willis puts down the samurai sword ..

I love me a good sketchy tool but i think ill draw the line at this tool

I had a 1962 Biscayne 235 engine..3 speed manual tranny...bought it for $25 in 1973...drove it 5~6 years. Best 25 bucks I ever spent.

Beautiful design of the cast deck! 💯👏👏

It's silly that he went to all that time to beautifully restore the carburetor why not just take off the engine and restore it? I collect old lawn boy mowers and I beautifully restore them I don't leave one section undone. It looks silly big deal if it's running A professional should do at least the engine

Runs and mows great! My folks had a Clinton mower back when i was a kid! A long time ago!

Love those Clinton engines,we had numerous ones when I was growing up, when I was in my late teens or early twenties I built one from parts from a couple of old ones and was so impressed by how well it cut tall grass, the governor would kick in until it was through then slow down, a contemporary B&S had to be ran at high speeds to do the same thing

Keep up the work

I was most impressed with how well that little engine handled that fairly tall grass also grass can get tougher in the late summer 😊

Geezum, I sure hope you checked the oil level before doing anything else. Certainly you did, but didn’t show it.

Boy, does that bring back childhood memories. These were sold in Western Autos, hardware, and local department stores for around $59.-$69. if I recall. Simplicity, longevity, and reliability at it's finest. Wish this was made still today.

Did you pull the fan shroud off to make sure the cooling fins were not clogged with debris?

and also add led substitute as when it was new that's the only fuel there was

Remember ethanol free fuel as ethanol will harm engine severly

Remind me of a old snapper push mower I used as a kid in the 70's on my grandma yard.

It runs incredibly smooth , no mechanical noise from the engine whatsoever.

I've seen a lot of old push mowers and I own a lot of old push mowers from 50s 60s 70s this is the first vertical shaft Clinton I've seen that wasn't just a picture.

Classy. Although there's a lot of negatives one could pin on the vintage cars........style was not one of them. It's great that we still have working examples.

It runs well. I like vintage equipment. I sometimes think it took MORE innovation before the electronic era.

🤨 ~ there wasn’t a lot of grass being blown out the hole in the side of the deck [mulcher mower] I assume the blades need to be slightly angled for the centrifugal fan effect of sucking the grass up and blowing it out?

Wonder if the exthaust is pointing the right direction.. seems funny having it pointing at the user for maximum noise

i had one similar

That’s a hard pass

Looks dangerous.

the death saw

Come in handy for protesters blocking roadways..

Went right to the comments. Good stuff!

How many people lost legs to this thing?

Made back when people had the common sense to use a tool, without crying that it's scary.....

Tell me again grandpa How did you lose your leg?.

Great bit of kit for moving large crowds from behind

Wow...I was 3 years old back then, but I never saw anything like that....what could go wrong ??

What could possibly go wrong 😅

On ne se préoccupait pas trop de la sécurité en 1950, par contre on fabriquait solide. Ma m;ere a toujours son réfrégirateur acheté en 1956, dans la remise. Il fonctionne encore et n'a JAMAIS brisé. Aujourd'hui quand tu parviens à faire 10 ans rtu es chanceux

Man, I could use one of them. I've got a bunch of cedar trees in the pasture that I need to cut

Wow, so many uses

That may be hands down the most sketch piece of equipment I have ever seen 😮

That is a “ pup wood” length diminishing tool….

Safety is for other people.

Always best to wear bowling shoes when operating on hilly terrain with those machines.. The upside is if used often it should yield plenty of pegleg material...

This is some straight mad max stuff. I like it!

They didn’t have warning labels back then!!😂

Hope he’s got his safety flip flops on.

Unfortunately, it costs an arm and a leg........ . to operate.

I think that was discontinued around the same time as jarts

Back in the day when men were men
