He has only had it a few months and I think he drove it just long enough to get it up on the trailer. No smoke or knocks but indicated the carb needed to be rebuilt. Said it was complete top to bottom and end to end. He'll fire it up and I can hear it run. If I like it we'll pull it and put it in the bed of my truck and I'll haul it back home (he's about 4 hours away).

Is there an advantage to having the whole thing as opposed to just a core?
