We have 2 green scampers, one I pictured is orginal and recoil start, have a rough one with electric start that we hope to get restored someday! Orange Scamper's were made in when 300-400 series tractors were made.

My brother had a Scamp. When he passed away , his youngest son got it. He sold it less than a year later cause "it didn't have the mower deck" PFFFT, the mower deck is at Dad's place in the barn.

I had a '72 AC Scamp 5 (Same as Simplicity Wonderboy 305)...wish I had kept her. It was actually a very tough sell, when I needed cash for another project. Ended up going to a local guy just to cut a small lawn. It was back on CL a month later =[
  I just had this one shipped my way, and it's exactly what I've been looking for...it will be in LaPorte with me. This is a '69 Mow Bee 526 (5hp, 26" cut). Shipped my way via Fastenal from a fella who's father had taken extremely good care of it.
