Many thanks for adding to the record ....

I find it particularly rewarding when we remember the small players
that played a part in the 'Golden Days' of AUS rotary mowers ...
when small businesses could make an honest buck and make
an honest, quality lawnmower.

We get to hear a Hurricane engine and collectors get to see
a sensitive and thoughtful restoration.

A sincere Thank you

For the record, this is a Jet rotary tiller.
Mobilco were the Australian importers and distributors
of Ariens products in the 1960s and 1970s.

I am still gathering information on Mobilco tillers.

You know this is important information in authenticating
an Atco rotary with a Vinco engine.

You are saying that an Atco-Villiers engine does not have a square
bolt pattern, and therefore Atco Australia must have made a base
to suit an Australian Vinco engine.

I am now only looking for other evidence that links Atco to Vinco
in advertising or other records. Corroborative evidence is now the key.

Paul, this is great detective work!

Cheers

Scott Bonnar's Model 38 edger is a much-loved machine still
in use by many folk today.

This exceptional restoration is by Bon Scott, and the attention to
detail is second-to-none. Brilliant!

This restoration of a Model 45 by emk3 beginning in late 2016 is a
worthy topic to showcase. Members have recognised this as an exemplar in
newbies taking on restorations and generously documenting their progress in
doing so. Brilliant!

The story also showcases the help made available to members.
Glo Mod BB is a stickler in being so willing to help 45 restos, but this story
is also a great example of how a ‘newbie’ has, in turn, helped or inspired others.
