Not overly sure of the history. I know the original owner had it running perfectly and used to mow his lawn constantly with it. One day he had come home and another guy that was living with him had it pulled to pieces. He wasn�t impressed. After that he was going to dump it cos it had been sitting there for so long in pieces and the guy who pulled it apart took of with a lot of it and he never saw him again. Poor guy wasn�t happy. Unfortunately that�s the only history I know of it.
I have had the end cover off the engine to have a look at the pistons and it still looks brand new like it has never ran a day in its life just sitting in the weather.
The pictures below are of the ignition I assume and there is no key for it either which might pose a little problem especially trying to keep it genuine.
With regards to your other questions. I have a feeling this might be a slow haul. I only have a few of the bolts. The springs are the only ones in the pictures above. I have checked the starter motor by dead shorting it and it kicked straight away. So I know that will start. Just not to sure what parts are still missing. Sorry a bit of a tough one with an engine
