Anyway, looks like is now settled conclusively, I saw another antique mower site, and reading one typed-list page he has, he had a list of mowers fitted with Hurricane engines, 125cc and 160cc.. the Colda was second on the list...(125cc, apparently) but no pics. I hit the contact button on the site, and asked him if he had an image of one ..he has replied quickly, and sent a pic of a fully restored Colda, painted emerald green deck...there is no decal on front, of course a repro decal would be non-existent , but the mower itself is a spot-on match in every way that I can see...I've asked him for permission to display the pic elsewhere, as I thought it might be rude to just save it and post it here, but if he does not mind,( or does not reply again) I will put it here..
