Hi all,

My pop passed away and I have taken ownership of this mower of his. I have done some googling and had no luck identifying what model it is. Obviously the motor is missing but still has a I'd plate reading bm 01631.

Is anyone able to help out with a year model and what engine would have been on it? It will be a project for me to get it running again and back to its former glory.

If I am unable to source and original style engine I will convert something onto it. At this stage I just want to get it usable and will eventually do a full restoration

Thanks!

Hi Lee
Yes, this was such an important model to
the Scott Bonnar company.

Many thanks, too, for uploading images for the Record.
The maker's plate is important for provenance.

Please keep us informed.

Cheers
