I've got problems lol, I seem to have found another one of these albeit inpretty much the raw casting only state. Interestingly, it also has a very different mower truck mounting and drive that my other one. Also seemingly different than the one Carey has. This one does not have the floating spring suspension and seens to mount the power trucks fron the center of each. Motors were horizontally mounted, looks like a bearing block at each outer truck end.I'll have to wait till it gets here to measure etc and determine if it would have been side gear drive for the other axles or intended for chain drive. Sort of leaning toward gear drive as I see wide and thin casting section on that inner drive shassis and it really does not look like there would have been room for chain drive in the middle dur to the motor mounting. Anyway, time will tell...
