Hello Ellliot and welcome to the forum Just bought a Mustang myself at the weekend having owned a couple a few years back, they are a quirky little machine ! Try forum member nigel for a bonnet, he may have some bits left... Here's some photos of mine,which will be returned to the correct colours soon!

I have recently bought this mowett mustang, it starts first pull, it has been lightly modified to fit the previous owner, non the less I love it, but there’s just one problem... it has no bonnet. I have looked online but with parts being scarce I had no luck! If anyone knows of one for sale or even has one we’re they could note down dimension for me to make one from scratch that would be amazing. Thanks for your interest, Elliot

Thank you, I will try to get in contact with him. Your machine looks grate with original tread! would love to see it when your finished. Thanks Elliot

The double pulley measures approx. 4" and 3". The spindle pulleys are 3". I'll let the mathematicion's amongst us work out the R.P.M. Change the double over and the 4" is now below and clears the tensioner bar. Had to do one or two adjustments when I mounted it on the C-125. I fitted the p.t.o. to deck belt I used on the rear discharge. It is rather tight and would only fit the smaller p.t.o. pulley. So testing time. Started the tractor in the yard, engaged the deck and all was fine. Out on to the green and I'm happy to say I'm well pleased with it. Cut better than the RD, but that is not really surprising as the RD blades are well past their sell by date. I did find the drive belt twisted and I think that was due to it running on the outer p.t.o. pulley. I'll get another belt a couple of inches longer. When I'd finished cutting the green and verges, I was also pleased to see that not much cleaning of deck and tractor was required. The RD covered the rear of the tractor with cuttings. So some photo's of green and verges when finished.
