Gday everyone new

Names Shane, I'm a Small engine mechanic, been doing it for nearly 30 years. Its a job I love doing so it keeps a smile on my dial grin

I moved to Tassie from WA nearly 4 years ago and have kept my collection well under control since being here. Back in WA I had close to 50 mowers, 25 odd chainsaws and countless whippersnippers (all for fixing up of course wink ) I have been guilty of sticking a chev V8 into a ride-on too.

Current collection is an Evolution 3 greenfield, a couple of rover mowers, a few stihl chainsaws and brushcutters.......so far lol

Anyhoo...thats me, its a good lookin site and i'll help where I can.

Cheers
Shane

Wow great work.That's awesome.You still kept it looking like a ride-on.I take it there would have been some modification to the chassis and steering to cope with the extra weight?


Here for a good time,not a long time.
