the simplex in those pics looks a bit like mine, too, doesn't it..
surprising there have even been this many local mower manufacturers, frankly, must have been a thriving market with either no foreign competition or a lot of trade protection, to support them all..
Now, what, I don't think there are any local-powered local brands, are there? Victa use imported engines various brands, i think the Victa 160cc 2-stroke is officially extinct, isn't it? And Rover always did mostly just use Briggs 4-strokes..
