Hello Tyler and Norm

This is not an easy issue for me.
Masport appears to have entered our market in the 1960s, and
they sold Masport mowers and garden equipment here from that time.

There most successful product was probably their Home Gardener,
that sold very well here in the 1970s.

This is a Tecumseh powered Masport and I think it dates
to the early 1980s.

All my research shows Masport fitted Johnson Ironhorse
2-strokes and Briggs 4-strokes for our market, but I have an
open-mind about later models sold here.

I am sympathetic to Norm's view but nothing is certain about this.

I note that Masport Whirlwind was operating here in the 1970s.
My guess is that Masport took over AUS Whirlwind in the 1970s.

Today, Masport Australia is alive: https://masport.com.au/

Cheers
