Re: (ET) Bill Gunn's Elec-Trak parts

[Barry Woods <barry woods wright edu>]

JIm,

Are the "Bill Gunn" mowing decks designed to be more aerodynamic than  
the GE design?  Anyone of you havae exprience with one of his decks?

A lost of us, I'm sure, would be interested if they cut better than  
the original deck.  The cut quality of the original GE deck leaves a  
lot to be desired (at least in my experience).  The Gator-Blades made  
it acceptable, but not up to par with a quality gas riding mower.

Gives us an Elec-Trak that produces a manicured looking lawn and the  
world will beat a path to your door. . . .
