I have a Rototiller in good working order available for $350.  The 
required rear bar and lift are available for $50 and $125.  Just happen to 
have one extra lift availalbe, but everything else needs to be sold as a 
package deal.  My location is near Kansas City.  Feel free to call me at 
913 575 8083.
