Scott bonnar catcher entry on flee bay

hi greg! I have spoken to him on the phone and he sounded fair dinkum! as for the catchers thay will catch the clipings fine, mtd rover sell 17 inch catchers only, i have been told that when there gone there gone gen catchers are welded and have pressed out sides and a rolled seam down the left and right of the catcher riff raffs are flat sided pop riveted and no rolled seam so if u want original u could be lucky and buy 1 from mtd rover [17'] up to $200 or in most cases if u score a 14 inch ore 20 inch catcher it will need repairing regards steve....

Well there is always Turf Machinery Supplies (they look like they are back in business) or Star Products with their Scott Bonnar 45 Clone. Star does not appear to have any internet presence. -MMM

I purchased a 17" catcher from riff.raff53 and had it couriered down to melbourne for about $120. I'm happy with it, fits well.
I purchased a green painted one which he sprays with hammertone, the colour's not really that similar to Scott Bonnar green and it scratches off pretty easily, I figure it'll rust before too long. Still, for the price I think it's a good buy and he sells unpainted ones slightly cheaper if you wanted to paint them yourself.
