Hello wce,
I might have to do that, thank you! I'll be in touch when I get some time off later.
Meanwhile, what are your plans for it? It's in even better condition than I thought. Is there any original paint left on the frame? And I'm dying to know the maximum height of cut on the thing...
Regarding the Pope, nothing much but a few photos. I think some KX Southern Cross mowers had the same carrier and blades. But it'll have to be a reverse engineered job. There is some info on the KX blade carrier and blades on this forum and that's probably where I'd start.
