G'day folks,
Just a heads-up if anyone east of Melbourne is after a Scotty.
Saw this one in Vinnies Op Shop, Argyle St Traralgon yesterday. Didn't have a phone with me, so no pics.
It's a twin rail 17" SB45, with a 2000 made 3hp side valve Briggs on it - an obvious re-engine.
Has catcher, tho' it could do with a bit of panelbeating. Good life left in reel; didn't check the bedknife. Does appear to have some clutch issues; engine side was loose on the shaft - it's the twin set screw type. Rails looked OK, to a cursory inspection. Overall, a pretty clean unit, with little or no surface rust, even on the landroll.
They've got $220 on it, FWIW.
