I'd love to see a tear down and rebuild! I know how it is . . . the Bug comes first, but, if you can squeeze it in, I'll be watching. I love seeing old machines brought back to life! My 50s era Rockwell drill press that I got for free off Craigslist was a rusty, sad mess until I restored it to its former glory! That was decades ago before I even thought about video taping the process.

Very cool mower! Those old carbs can be very finicky with age.
I'll give it, a try. I'm not going to spend to much time on it. The odds of it going to the scrap yard are high.
Cool. I would guess mid 1960s
Didn't know it could be that old. I try to look for a date stamp on the engine and frame.
@@vintage76vipergreenBeetle the Briggs type and code #s should be stamped on the air shroud

Okay, I'll post the build date. When I find it. Thanks for the information.
Here are the numbers, model #61102 type #940621 serial #5912160 I can't find the build date code, for this engine online. Let me know, if you can.
@@vintage76vipergreenBeetleThanks, I will let you know if I find anything.
