  1. You only like it for the big chunky wheels on the back Nice photos too Paul.
  2. Nice Photos! Was you Exhibiting? or just visiting?
  3. Great photos! I like the ford county
  4. 16 tooth? I can't seem to find any? There is plenty of 9 and 13 tooth. looking online at american websites all of them say out of stock discontinued. I was lead to believe and told If a 16 tooth bendix came off a 16 tooth must go back on? Cheers Chris!
  5. Seen a few people, asked a few others but still no joy. Does anybody on here know of any mower shops/agricultural shops etc. That sell kohler parts? Many thanks
  6. Very nice! I like the idea of restoring one. And showing them side by side as before and after restorations. Are the two decals on the front of the steering column thingy different? Or has one just faded and weathered?
  7. Wow! That's great! Look forward to seeing more pictures.

    Nice Cub! Well done
  9. Nice little machine, everything looks better with a coat of paint!
  10. Very nice! Well done! I bet you're pleased. Look forward to seeing more pictures.
  11. And " a few of my teeth are missing"
  12. I call it the bendix? However I could be wrong with the name, either way I need one Does any body have one they are willing to sell? It's off a kohler K181 the bendix has 16 teeth? I have a spare tecumseh one and a briggs but they are the wrong type and size. Some of you experts may know what other model kohler bendix will fit etc, I'll let the pictures do the explaining as to why I need a new one
  13. Very nice that's two sets you've got now..... no need to be greedy only joking mate, you going to design them so they lift? Or just plonk them on with a drop pin and drag them along? (Discs that is)
  14. Well Norm, I must be one of your special friends I received mine in the post today. looking forward to it now.
  15. Cheers guys, Sadly no more information on them bikes Ian, there was a group of them but no one knew where they came from just arrived went round the track and then disappeared again Yes chris, we just knocked the windows out, chucked the chains through and lifted it with the hiab, just kidding... They where a pain to load and unload due to the ride height on them, had to back it / lower it off in stages with lots of ramps and wood
  16. Hello All, Bit late to post this but I was waiting to hear back from the organisers about how much was raised over the weekend! Last weekend I was away with my friend helping out at the 'The Super Car Event' that's held at the top gear track at Dunsfold every year. he runs his family owned breakdown recovery service that covers all of Sussex and Surrey, we normally go out on calls involving fords and volvo's etc, but last weekend was something amazingly different as we was recovering high end performance cars! The weekend is held to support the Childrens Trust Charity and this year everyone raised a whooping £115,000 for the charity. lots to see and do over the weekend, If any of you are into your cars I'd defiantly suggest going next year! its a life time experience to get driven round the top gear test track at high speeds! It was a first for me, I got driven round in all my dream cars! all sorts of cars arrived for you to ride in... Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, Dodge Vipers, The Rare 'La Ferrari' and also the Lexus LFA and many many more.... here is a few photos. but hardly a touch of what was there. a few people can say they have been to the track, but not many can say they have camped on the outfield of the track! Best view out of all from the back of the lorry! The best bit about being 'behind the scenes' as such, was being in the pit lane! all of a sudden something different appeared! and YES! they did go round the track on them! This next one is one of the cars that broke down and wanted to be taken back home, he was furious! he had just had his gearbox/automatic/electronic clutch thingy repaired and a full service... he was showing us the paper work when we got back to his house as we didn't believe it! £16,000 for the work he had carried out... all for it to go boom again! and another one we had to take home.. it seems to be I wont be buying a black Ferrari...... they don't seem to be doing too well
  17. Happy Birthday Chris, Have a great day!
  18. Postman must use motor vehicles up your way Norm, I think he still delivers on horse back here, I'll get mine in time for 2016's show
  19. It's always good to have a little extra room, as you never know what you might end up buying! Lovely job! Very nice.
  20. That's good, best pull my finger out and sort a few bits and pieces! Hoping I can adapt something to work in time!
  21. was mine received in time do you know Chris?
  22. Yesterday I was lucky enough to get offered this machine, My friend has had it for years, but has never really used it as he has no where to drive it! I spoke to him about it for a while and then went over to see it after I finished college. as soon as I got there I fell in love with it I knew I had to have it! It needs a little tidying up, lots of prep and painting, a few pieces of wiring sorting out and a decent fuel tank! oh, and its got one slow puncture, The bonus is, it runs drives, and is very fast! big smiles on my face! I haven't discovered any makers name yet, but the engine has castings HONDA and 450cc.... It wouldn't fit down the side of the house! so had to take it through the field out the back!
  23. I see. I was pretty sure I had seen the collection else where before but wasnt sure,then when I see it from the camera angle above^ Ithought it was with your horses and van
