You're stating to see more of the 200 series from the early 1990's for sale now. They were the last of the affordable Wheelhorses. Lot's of cast iron, steel and grease fittings. Brand new I could have bought that for $2100.00 13 yrs ago.I have a 210H that I bought in 1992 that is still in service. I got that because I thought the hydro transmission was more important than the Onan engine. I could'nt afford both at the time. It has seen better days...but she's still cutting grass. Good find Major...Carry on.

Heres another view showing the RH side and the "column" shifter, which is the round balled lever just under the steering wheel. There are detents for the forward gears, and the lever must be lifted (a safety lockout mechanism) to get reverse. I can't take compliments for this one's nice condition - the previous owner took fine care of her. A quick detailing did make her look better however. Rob - I'm still getting used to my Olympus model 765, 4 megapixel camera, but my trusty 7 year old Sony FD-71 digicam is going strong! I used the Olympus set at 1280 x 840 pixels for these pics, which is much less resolution than what the camera is capable of. If I use the max setting, the pics are WAY too big & take forever to load. I'm still on dialup at home, but have Optimum Online ordered & hopefully will have it set up by week's end. Marty
