G'day JamesM, and a big warm welcome to the forum.Great to see that you have bought yourself a Model 45 Scotty,I think your dad-in-law guided you well there; carefully maintained it will give you years of mowing pleasure and grass cut like it should be with the classic stripes as well!! I have almost finished restoring/reconditioning my Scotty 45 and have posted some pics at topic Old Mower Photos on this forum for those interested.
Best of luck with the lawn and once again, welcome. wink
Kindest Regards, Darryl
