Well I can say that this conversation has taken an unexpected turn for sure!
I'm not sure i'll tell my girlfriends dad what he gave up!
The whole reason behind building them is fascinating and ill be sure to look into it at uni next semester too. You have provided some fantastic information with the political/economical history behind these bad boys.
looking around other forums it looks like the clutch fork mount is set further back than that of the 45's.
Is it possible if you had a lathe to fabricate up a spacer that meant you could retrofit a 45 clutch assembly to the 33's or are they a completely different design?
Finally is it possible to retrofit the chain drive assembly from a 45 to a 33?
These may seem like silly questions and it would be awesome if this was truly a special mower but, I have dealt with a lot of vintage cars and I have been caught out before thinking something was special and it has turned out that someone has retrofitted different parts to it (mostly in engines and transmissions and differentials).
CyberJack It's not that I don't believe you its more that it sounds too good to be true!
Once again thanks heaps for your help.
