Gday guys, I�ve just acquired a neat little utility that is used to mow over an acre of grass. It has the square plastic fuel tank. I am going to tear it down and refurbish it soon and prefer the sloping fuel tank style. It is shown in the picture of the brown utility that member speedy restored for his mate, an excellent job too. I�m in the northern rivers so can pick up from Grafton up to Brisbane areas, or am happy to pay for postage.

Me got one but haven't checked the condition of the tank. You're welcome to it provided I can get the deucid thing off. I'm away at the moment but should be back soon to take it off to post it.
Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!

I posted a motorcycle petrol tank I had repaired last week and Aus Post didn't question it but try and send a mower on transport and they act up because it has had fuel and oil in it. Go figure.

Mowerfreak, Sorry, I didn't see your reply. That would be excellent, but it might not work out with what Normk said. I wonder how we can find out?

Clean it out if required and cross our fingers they will accept it.

I haven't gotten home yet to look at it. Just bid as if I don't have it.
