1997 John Deere LX176 lawn tractor w/ 48 inch deck & Power Flow Bagger

For sale - 1997 John Deere LX176 lawn tractor w/ 48 inch deck & Power Flow Bagger. Runs well, was remotored with a new Briggs & Stratton replacement from Small Engine Warehouse. Bought from original owner, has a 48-inch deck, which was non-standard for dealer-sold LX176 models. The bagger system works well, was added on by current owner and was assembled from all OEM parts, many NOS (the bagging system alone is worth most of the asking price). As pictured, the upper hood is cracked and missing a large piece (aftermarket replacements are widely available), but the lower hood is a new aftermarket replacement. Other updated/upgraded parts include the PTO clutch, the PTO switch, the seat pad, headlight sockets and bulbs (they work but a replacement lens is needed), tires, and mower blades. The deck has some rust you’d expect from a 25 years old mower but is in good shape. Also have original owner’s manual and some other spare and replacement parts, including hood stickers for a new upper hood if you replace it. Reasonable offers welcome.
