[AT] gravely sickle mower

[Mark Greer]

Cecil,
There are lots of Gravelys here in NE Ohio (most of 'em are in my barn but
don't tell my wife!). Seriously though, If you find one on eBay that's
within an hour of Orrville, I'll pick it up and strap it to a pallet and
ship it to you as long as you are paying the shipping bill. We ship a couple
pallets a day at work so it wouldn't be a bother for me and we always have a
pile of pallets out back. I do have a couple sickle bar mowers right now but
one is a 42"(standard width) that I use with some regularity, one is
complete but needs work and is basically just here as a spare parts machine,
and the third has a 60" cutter bar (fairly rare in the Gravely world) and I
plan on rebuilding this winter to use around here instead of the 42". I
think the most I've ever paid for one is about $50 but they usually sell in
the $75-$125 range at auctions around here. I'll keep an eye out for a deal
on one for you.
