G'day all
I'm hoping 3D plastic and metal printing technologies will come to the rescue,
and make available economical parts reproduction.
I have a hate/love relationship with the Diplomats.
The design was compromised primarily because it had to be made within a
strict budget.
The worst of the Diplomats was the 590 Series.
This is the 430 Series with dual clutch and the original built-in edger.
A real Ford Edsel of design - but one well-worth saving ...
even if just for the 'What were they thinking?' factor.
Great record images from John A. Thank you!
Cheers
