to do a reasonable job on repairing them I can spend up to a month.
I can see that now. I think the biggest mistake I made was to do it bit by bit leaving the mower basically fully assembled. I think it would have been wiser to pull off the cutting deck first (is still attached) and then remove say the engine and gearbox, seat and then say the wheels. I'll pull off the deck now and proceed from there.
I'll know better next time, if there is a next time...
