    New to me wood cart.
    Should make the hauling a little easier than the wheel barrow. [​IMG]

    Sweet! That's the only type of "wheelbarrow" I like.

    Reloader , does she have enough grunt to handle a stand on sulky behind it? You know, like some of the commercial mowers use. Then it could haul you too!

    I always figured those would really work nice. Let us know how this one turns out after using it for a while.

    This one is well used but I found it for a decent price and figured I’d give it a try. They used to sell a sit down sulky for these but they are no longer available.

    Reloader ,
    A tricycle from the dump, an old boat or mower seat, and a little metal fabrication (redneck engineering) and you could be riding in style!

    :dremel: :tractor:

    that would be awesome! I stack about a cord of wood at the very front of my yard, up against the fence. Its at the bottom of a small rise so I am immediately pushing uphill without a running start with the wheelbarrow. Forces me to toss it over the fence and load it into the Bronco to bring it in the house. That thing would make my life much easier! Especially pulling stuff out of the woods too!

    Not sure about the Tecumseh motor but it seems to run okay. Did an oil change and the plug was easily accessible from the bottom unlike some of the other motors I’ve read about on them.
    Previous owner wanted to keep the battery so I’ve got one coming. Does start fine with the pull cord.

    4th gear would be a good jog at full throttle.

    That should help with moving the wood.
