That's a Montgomery Wards Garden Mark riding mower. It came with a front mounted deck. I have a pic of an original one somewhere.

Nice kart Dee, that is sweet. :thumbsup:

thanks, yeah my dad found it in the penny saver and had me call, we picked it up .. slapped a tecumseh on it .. my dad cut out the back to fit the motor.. it was red with flames.. i masked off the flames and hit it with gloss black .. the engine cutoff switch was a "die" (as in dice) plunger type thing attached under the windshield cut out.. .. i put a battery powered mini guitar amp we had, and rigged a sony walkman to that and would hit the street.. even got pulled over in it ... later in life when i had a real car .. my pop sold it without saying anything ..it was just gone

so glad i found this home movie though..
