Hi Jack, I finally picked up my first of 4 Scott Bonnar rotary mowers. I've looked up a bit of Scott Bonnar history here and in the section about 72 and 52 high arch rotaries, it shows known models and their numbers.
The one I have acquired is missing 1 number, the 6 at the end I believe. Mine is Model number: 72001 Mower number: 7200501
It's an identical match for Model 720016 advertisement, I found on ODK. It's a green 4 HP Viking with a Kirby 2-stroke engine and a glossy black catcher.
If you could possibly point me towards some more info on ODK, it would be greatly appreciated!!! I'll continue to post my mowers as I slowly pick up all of the stuff I've organised during lockdown, and we're talking a lot of mowers, catchers, collectables and rare parts.
I'll post a couple of pictures including the advertisement, a screen shot of the Scotty rotary models on ODK, the model and mower numbers and the mower and catcher.
