Picked up this white mustang GTS today, although as Ugly as it's twin, the Vortex, an absolute beauty for the collection.

Seems to have good compression, and is very much complete (even has the plate over the carby and fuel tap.

Looking forward to getting this one running, cost $20 from Tiny's in Mitchell (From Tiny himself!!!)

I'll have a dig around for you Joe, might be able to help you there!

To be honest, I have not yet tried to start it, the spark plug lead is headless, perhaps the guarantee will kick in once that is fixed!


Cheers
Ty

Ive got a few of them here Joe, most have been welded at some stage. Looks like the one on Ty's mower that i can see has started cracking. Have also seen a few mowers with the other type, flat at the bottom and rounded where the upper bolt goes through, they seem to be a lot stronger.


I think the guarantee has long run out on that one.

I have one of those as well. I thought they were a Vortex. Guess i was mistaken.
Suppose i will have to keep a red Vortex then.

So far I have seen 3 types, the Vortex, Mustang GTS and Silver Streak of the same era, all identical bar colours.
