How do I remove the front to back exhaust system on the old w11s? I’m thinking of getting rid of mine but I want to keep the exhaust because it’s really good. Cheers

Yeah theyre ideal for that because they arent that quick. Shame about the bearing being missing though.

So its back at mine and its worse than i thought. It sounds really good but 3 axle mounts have snapped, the 2 front ones and one back one that can be welded. The electric start doesnt work and its really rusty all over. Its still getting a full restoration starting in a few months so ill keep you all updated video-1588623966.mp4

I was on facebook earlier and i saw a w8 paleface with the light cover instead of the headlights, It has the rear exit exhaust and ive never seen a westwood like this before. I restored and sold my other 2 palefaces about a year ago and practically gave up on my youtube channel (ProjectRestore) haha. This mower was breaking for spares but it seemed quite rare with some of the parts it had on it so i thought itd be worth an ask if i could buy it whole. The guy offered it me for £50 so i took it straight away! Its going to be undergoing a full nut and bolt rebuild on my channel because its very rusty which i will be doing in my shed because i find it easier to work there and it means i can be in there 12 hours a day working. The first video will go up in a few months because i want to finish my shed before i get working on it so i will attach some photos now but videos wont be going up for a while yet. (Please bare with me on videos though because im 15 yrs old so it takes a lot of saving up to afford to get parts for it lol) Forgot to add, it came with a good condition brochure, a good condition owners manual and a mint condition engine part guide, all original!

Hi, I have an old westwood that has the rare rear exit exhaust, unfortunately however, someone has put a motorbike exhaust on and welded on an extra bit, does anyone know where to find either the backbox or one that will fit for sale? Cheers

Yeah Ive been on your site a few times, definitely going to order some, I picked it up today, it'd been sat in a barn 10 years with occasional use. i found out the previous owner had put a motorbike exhaust on it and hand painted the bonnet so today i removed the exhaust engine etc getting it ready for a full teardown tomorrow

I might be interested if you've still got it, i might be able to get over to you this weekend

So I've just bought this old paleface W11 to restore. I know it runs ride and cuts, but the paintwork needs fixing and the steering wheel, wiring and deck have had some dodgy repairs in its time. Its going to be fully stripped down and restored to factory condition. I will video the project and post it to youtube and also upload photos on here as i go as i may need advice etc. Ive had a W8 paleface in the past, a T1800, a W6, an S600, a T1200 and I currently have an early D1200 with the T1200 branding and Lombardini engine so Im not new to these machines. Ill post the first update this weekend.
