I'd personally keep the mower as well as the engine as you have a device that you can use the engine with rather than just an engine running on a display peice, of course that is up to you...
That mower though was what the victa imperial was based off, I noticed that years back that they looked somewhat similar to the imperial and have had it confirmed from several sources that victa did indeed borrow and make their own design from ransomes.
Sadly...i have not got the space..or the lawn to justify keeping it as a mower....its huge....
Hope someone can use the remainder for their own resto...
Wish i could work out the date this was made...not much info around ...
