Dixon Riding Mower Gets Around At Farm Shows
Herb and Christine Wilcox of Dublin, Ohio, used their 1970 Dixon riding mower to get around the recent Ohio Farm Science Review near Columbus. To switch the mower to showgoing mode, Herb removes the mower deck, unbolts the hood, and then bolts a sheet of plywood onto the mower's frame. Then he bolts two padded car seats onto angle iron brackets fastened to the plywood.
The Honda engine came with only a 2-qt. plastic gas tank so Herb straps a 1-gal. metal gas can under the seats. He also made a bracket that supports an umbrella to provide shade and protection from rain.
