1990 Montgomery Ward 16/42 -16hp twin cyl. lawn tractor
Posted by admin
Remember going to Montgomery Ward? I do, it was one of the last real department stores selling a full line of products. They sold lawn tractors since way back, originally being made for them by Gilson. Then from the late 1970’s to the late 1990’s when they stopped selling tractors, they were made by MTD. In the later years, Ward’s also sold them under “Signature 2000″ and “Powr-Kraft” brand names. I saw this “needs work” tractor for a good price, so I snapped it up. Now that I think about it, this tractor was probably purchased at the same store loacation I used to go to. It has a Briggs & Stratton 16hp opposed twin-cylinder motor, a 7-speed Transmatic transaxle, a 42″ deck and 9/10ths of a grass bagger. The guy I bought it from said it had no ignition switch when he got it, and all he had done was verify the motor cranked over when jumped directly to the starter.
