A bit more progress on the Spincut, I was getting the base ready to repaint and used some paint stripper to remove the paint. To my delight it only removed the newer blue paint that someone had used to refresh the mower in the last. It revealed quite a bit of the original orange paint so I decided to try the engine cowl as well
I was missing the fuel tank and muffler top, I found that I had both. The tank was on a stationary engine and the muffler top on a scrap engine, very happy that the tank was orange.
