I am new to this forum, but have used it a lot to help me with my first Scott Bonnar restoration. Thought I would post a few pictures and comments from my restoration in case they might help others going through the same process.
Attached are a couple of pictures of the mower I bought to restore - you will notice it is actually in pretty good shape already, however being new to Scott Bonnar I didn't want to take on something overly difficult.
More through luck than good judgement, some of the things the mower had when I bought it that I am now appreciative of are no cracks in the top rails, the catcher and coverplate for the gears/chains are both straight with little or no dents, and the handlebars are relatively corrosion free.
I will provide updates as I go, just for general interest.
