So an update.
Today I took the mower to Australian Saws and Blades in Pooraka (for the Adelaide members) and the guy there looks after quite a few Scott Bonnar mowers for cricket clubs and Bowling clubs. After some discussion I think I'm going to pull it down, put a new (more powerful) motor and give the whole thing a spray paint.
Does anyone know where I can source a new catcher from? The guy said coming across a decent catcher for the 14" is pretty rare
