Ive got a white one, a series II V40. Its in bits, i will build up a fresh motor for it. Its not mint but its in goo order.

Got older yellow ones, will probably just end up selling them. One is fairly tidy, was red with a broken cover, put a yellow cover and wheel caps on it. The other was pretty sad, cover is cracked, might take the Vortex cover off it and put a regular cover on it.

Was in at the scrap yard tody and theres 2 Vortexes there, covers are broken on both.
I moght go in and scrounge the alloy exhause heat shields off em.

And i got a surprise from the scrap yard the othed day. One of those things, you think you have no interest in it but its there and you find yourself being unable to walk past it. More about that tomorrow.
Cheers, Bob.

They can be hard to find with good cover's, there's one at the tip here too Bob, the cover is sliced, cracked and melted, it's a sore sight!

I'm excited to here what your new purchase is!


Cheers
Ty

Bleeding, went into the scrap yard today and the pile of mowers is gone.
There were 2 more Vortex there, i wanted to rat the height relay bar and rear axle out of one as well as the alloy muffler covers.
One of the Vortexes i got from there was missing the back axle.
