Hello noddy69 and Norm At least we can identify it... Note the shallow skirt with discharge chute, central-rear height adjuster and 7F Villiers Motor. This is an Australian-made Villager. [use Blue Search Bar for more]. This would have been someone's pride-and-joy when delivered to its new home c1960. Rust in piece ...Cheers ---------------------Jack

G'day noddy69 , Norm and Jack Someone will definitely want this mower even if they are just after engine parts ,I see these 7F motors sell for $20 to $50. The base is repairable but probably for $50 to $100 you would buy one with a good base. Cheers Max.
