Sorry Jonno, Can't see it!?!

Heres the Craftsman i mentioned Joe, its yours if you want it, I'll just pop it in the corner, and bring it along when I'm out your way.

I think the main issue is just with the catch flap, My godfather gave it to me, said it was working when it was last asked to, so perhaps a good clean, a service, and some repairs to the catch flap (i don't think there is any rust on this one)


Cheers
Ty

That would be a good one, cheers....

here is what can be had (plus more I didnt have time to get a pic of) at my place. All will be free on a couple of small conditions smile

[Linked Image from i269.photobucket.com]
The mustang, the cowling is pretty sad, never checked the rest of it out.

[Linked Image from i269.photobucket.com]
a deckson mower with a rare 5hp briggs, I would love to see have some tlc and brought back to life (1970's) I do have a couple of fuel tanks and carbs for it.

[Linked Image from i269.photobucket.com]
A corvette 2, with spare cowling. Starter was very lazy on this, I am sure it would turn out ok, I already have one in great condition with catcher to keep for myself....

[Linked Image from i269.photobucket.com]
A rather sad old low rch, with custom coke bottle air filter and home made muffler. I rescued it from a scrap pile many years ago.

Victa high arch silverstreak, the deck is pretty good, if you guys dont want it I will keep it as the base is the same as my power plus victa with a stuffed base.

I only ever had one green top mustang sorry, it was well beyond salvageable, I think I might have kept the starter and engine. the cowling and base looked like they had been mowing sand with it for years on end.

Cant wait to see what else there is, i'll have a look in the shed tomorrow and see what other youngins i have to offer.

Here's a few closeups of the one i acquired the other day.

The Dress cowl is buggered, it has the wrong cooling cowl (Series 80, with the Ignition cutting) the filler cap has experienced ethanol, and its just all around unhealthy, but a good candidate for parts.

ok, i have taken as many photos as i could of the cracks that are there (plastic cowl crack and catcher cracks) and all seem repairable without too much fuss. there is also a photo of the second mower that was used as a donor (probably could be made into another mustang but would not be anywhere near as good as this one.

Just trying to be as transparent as possible.
