Yeah, ive never seen them before.


I suppose you could use the later wheels and black caps.


I see that this one has the 'fat' wheels on the front.


The base is a good start, but its gunna need some work, handles are all sloppy and it gives the general appearance that its done a power of mowing.

Yeah but the newer wheels won't be the original.I'm just looking at making one myself as they are rare.Also as I said before I now have an original engine from one of these.So I would like to be able to do it the right way.I may already have wheels just not caps.I know I will be running an eye over it as well,so I can get my one close to it.


Here for a good time,not a long time.

I meant use the newer wheels untill you can find some older black caps.

I'd properly just use the red caps until I could.I mean I could get the plastic primer and paint them,but [Censored] what a hassle that would be.

Wonderfull!!

Thanks Bob, I should not have too much trouble getting this on into gear, I can get a colour matched plastic filler for that crack in the cowl, and the sloppy handles, etc, are a common issue with that locking system, which should not take too much to repair.

The cowl itself seems in reasonable enough condition, the wheels are correct, and the caps in good nick, and the base plate itself seems fairly good.

This one should come up really good when done!


Cheers
Ty
