Hi noddy,
I have seen worse than that restored so I don't think anybody will be laughing

Hello noddy69 and Norm
At least we can identify it...

Note the shallow skirt with discharge chute, central-rear
height adjuster and 7F Villiers Motor.

This is an Australian-made Villager.
[use Blue Search Bar for more].

This would have been someone's pride-and-joy when
delivered to its new home c1960.

Rust in piece ...

Cheers

G'day noddy69 , Norm and Jack

Someone will definitely want this mower even if they are just after engine parts ,I see these 7F motors
sell for $20 to $50.

The base is repairable but probably for $50 to $100 you would buy one with a good base.


Cheers
Max.
