Seems tassie is the place to go...2 18s and 2 autos plus an OB! Not a bad haul...Oil nips im certain were up until around the 2,000 mark so aprox 112,000 serial run. The air filter assy Will be the smiley face as per the diagram in this thread,but the embossing will be black not red. Cigar fuel tap is accurate as is twin hole carby cap. check the fuel tank cap for the green(same colour as the groove cover) not black,but they have been painted so check the inside. All Predictas were pull start. pully is incorrect you need the early starter type with the retaining nut,steel cord and 2 piece alloy pull knob and green rubber cover(also same green colour as the cap and groove cover)and also the dog nut for the engine. The four side skirt mount bolts should have dampening springs and cups under the heads if they havnt been lost. All this will then make it accurate other than the flaps and skirts. As for the other autos unfortunately at this serial no they will be nothing more than Model 4 Specials with possibly the auto badge if still fitted. This is the only xtra they got after the Predicta finished that Im aware of.
Still nice mowers though...As for the model 5s wait and see,but I doubt they will hold anything special unless they are by chance a Dep store model. give me the serials and ill date them for you if you like:) hope this helps you
