Since everybody seemingly has Scottys on the brain lately, I thought I'd start this topic on an enquiry I have had floating around my mind quite a while now.
Decades ago in the 1980s someone in my neighbourhood had Scott Bonnar side throw that we used to make fun of, due to it's relatively basic appearance compared to the typical Victas everyone else used in the street.
It had a white B&S motor with the vertical starter and spinning metal grill at the top. It was the first SB product I ever came across, so this is the mower I always associate with the brand.
I recall how easy it was to start and how nicely it cut the grass when I had a couple of goes. I loved how it shot a nice shower of clippings away from the mower, something my Victa Utility didn't do years later. Maybe it was because tithe SB had blades from a catcher model fitted in place of slasher type blades.
I can't recall any details except for the white B&S motor.
I am guessing it dated possibly from the late 1960s as it did have a slightly vintage appearance to it. All I know is it's basic appearance added to the fun of using it and the tractor sound of the motor put a smile on my face.
