Thank You BB and CyberJack for your input and supportive words. Agree with you BB, I actually rechecked the paint colour after I started spraying to make sure I hadn't been handed someone else's order. From both of your inputs, I think I'll leave the engine finish as it is.
I am glad the mower has/is achieving a high standard as it will probably be offered for sale soon after being finished.
BB, with reference to the originality of the mower, would you mind highlighting the things you have noticed as transgressions. Just for my own benefit really so I can consider them for future works.
Again, thank you both for your feedback.
