I must admit that this black chain case look is also growing on me rather rapidly, but I guess that's because it's all looking super fresh and rather contrasty opposed to how most of the examples out there in use or rescued units now look.
Everything I've seen on original mowers has a horrible appearance after 43 odd years as these were made back in late 1976.
As every component is a different colour on your rebuilt just makes this one look ever so much more striking in its appearance.
I'm glad there's a difference in the shades of the engine and reel because truthfully that's why everyone paints the reel red and not Chevy Orange. Contrasts are something that the human eye really likes.
Cheers, BB.
I live a 24 Hour lifestyle, but every now and again I seem to fall asleep, well at least that's what my wife tells me.
