OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping Tip & Curb Side Finds My hard rubbish part 5

Oh well either way I think it's safe to say that this is the wrong motor.Now I need to find the right motor and right cowl.As I did want one of these.I was looking at one that was in Brisbane.Now don't need to.

Let me have a dig around, It may well be the right motor, just the wrong starter!

Yeah but I'm going to need the cowl and all sorts of things

That cowl is an easy find, and a standsrd G4 will be all you need for the carby.

Oh ok then well that's ok then

I may even have a cowl, starter cup, carby and tank here for you!

Gees your a good lad.I'm have to stop spreading all those rumours about you.[Censored] did I just type that?

Oh, is this why people keep accusing me of being a witch doctor?

I have had a look, and I am starting to think that engine and base were indeed born together.

That properly why.Maybe you are right.I'm not sure.

OK then after day 2 wow what a day.Found lot's more goodies.Funny how a different area found only electric wiper snipers.Don't want any of those,so left them there.Besides that there are 2 guys running around and cutting all the power cords of all the electrical items.Also collecting metal and some mowers,(Mongrels)there only doing it to make money.I don't like that,don't think they should be allowed to do it for money.Hey I'm not.There are some good things out.Found some electrical items with signs saying they work,but these mongrels have cut the cords off.Makes it harder for somebody who can't fix them.What happen to recycle.You can't with theses guys trying to make money from it.It's just wrong.Sorry it just gives me the pips.There's just nothing that can be done about it.


This one I was happy with.Seen one on eBay last week was going to go for it and take the win.I'm glad I didn't now.Would have only ended up with two.







This one has my dogs approval.I think she thinks it will go.

If anyone see's something they would like,by all means let me know.I would be happy to make deals with you.Would prefer just to swap for other mowers of course. Especially with the four strokes,not a real four stroke fan.About the only one I don't think I'll part with is the purple VC-Sports.Sorry but I do like that one.

thats a damn good haul!

I love the "2 Stroke Hi-Arch" Utility... Anyone else smell a home repair job?

I take it that green mustang has a Plastic Carby?

That Monaro also looks to be in great shape Too, and the engine of that gold one hasa the same front tank brackets as the utility from yesterday should!

the side of the monaro looks a bit chewed out unfortunately, could just be somethign else in the pic though. stick that "maximus" and the grey powertorque to the side if you get no other takers

Oh! I missed that bit Joe, Wow, Yes, maybe the monaro is not in such wonderfull shape after all, At least the cowl looks good!

Yes the monaro has a broken base.There is a huge hole on the right side,and the back left wheel is broken.

Bugger, how is the decal on it? I am trying to find a good example of one to get replicated a high res pic of the monaro decal and sizes of it should be enough if possible.

Hi Joe,no there not to good.The one on the cowl has bits missing from the bottom of it and the one on the base seems to have a ripped bit on the bottom right.It also has drops of paint all over it.Looks like somebody has been painting near it.Also Ty that auto starter I was talking about (On the phone) is black not cream as I said.

That would be right, I think the auto was either green or black.

The bad news is that the parts i am giving you are for the first one, the parts you have are for the second!

Oh well I guess I'll find one eventually,and when I do it may need it.It's not like it will take up to much room.Thanks Chris I wasn't and still not really sure what it was and is.It just looked unusual so I thought I'd grab it.

Snap! Another purple/blue VC sports..nice find Blumbly!! Good to see all that hard driving paying off with a good haul! Well done. I'll be droppoing by tomorrow arvo with the Lightweight.
