looking good - currently got two Westwoods - T1600 and W11. Trying to pull more of the history of the early models together on them if anyone know more. Looks like early models are 1980'ish with gear change in the usual place and steel grills?
It lives.... I thought the carb was a goner as it had so much black tar inside that I couldn’t get out. Fortunately brother has an ultrasonic cleaning tank.

Yep I understand that, but I think he said it had an old Honda engine in, and I thought I would have a lot of trouble finding the right engine for it, but as it happens the showmans got one for sale, I will look forward to the restoration of this one because ime sure you will do it to your normal very high standards and it will end up better than new.👍🏻
Its a Briggs 9hp electric start. Quite a new version engine, just not on this project...
Keeping original would be good, but if a later k241 with starter will fit then happy with that. There’s a lot more to the older type, and getting a starter and regulator that work is tricky.
when did you mail me (restorationdecals)? My son usually replies immediately, orders usually take a few weeks due to other commitments. We've just done a print run last week....
a few of you have seen my field - all over the place and full of reeds, thistles and nettles. A strimmer doesn't work and a wheel horse deck has no chance. So I have gone large.
A 1.45m flail - which really make the tractor sweat
don't have many pics as I was mowing! took half a day to get through 2.5 acres of thick grass and a tank of diesel
picked up a trailer at the same time, that helps too!

whatever the issue, you need to strip it. It could be a selector fork worn or bent...
