Hi Mal,
Very good detective work.
I know the colour is problematic with the ID chart we are using.
That chart does not run chronologically.
However, the thing I noticed is that Al's machine has the height lever on the L.H. side.
That is good evidence against my initial assessment.
I note that both Al's machine and your machine has lugs for a spring-loaded
deflector (which yours is missing).
Your argument is convincing that this is a later model version of the second base design.
Turner were using the GEB (alongside the LVs) until 1964.
I favour a
F61 because of the windrower design (with toe guard).
Is it possible that Al's base is identical to yours?
This is getting confusing
Clearly more work to be done.
