  1. Glad to hear it is still about. I saw photos of it at Netley after you got it but none since. We did Netley this year and i did keep an eye out. We have lost a wheel and currently showing a bonser truck
  2. Hi Ben, They are quite a heavy machine but not to bad. I would guess 3 - 400 kg. Maybe half ton with the cutters on. Very simple design and good fun to work on. I sold mine just before Christmas. With the large rear tractor wheels the chap i sold it to just got it in the back of a Nissan pick up truck.
  3. Been a while since I have been on here. A house move, baby girl, new job e.t.c e.t.c. But myself and pops have made another Bolens purchase! We managed to get a nicely restored bolens 1000 of a neighbour on the weekend that just needs a tiny once over. Variety of attatchments (most home made) bit there is a tiller, roller, lawn rake, some sort of plough / grader. Nice little tipper trailer as Well. We have also been told there is a plough, sprayer and manual to pick up to go with it. Unfortunately I have used up all my allowed photo space so need to renew my membership. Andrew feel free to pinch the pics of the FB! The only thing I need to get for it is a push starter button. Thanks all!
  4. Hi guys. It's been a while! Pull start cable and also spring have broken on my kohler engine for the pull start. I could repair but wondering if anyone has a kohler there breaking. Or where I can look for parts? Many thanks in advance guys!
  5. Looking good. Best thing would be get then out in the sunshine and start tinkering. Download engine manuals and get them running then work your way through them. The rear brake set up.is the same as.morris minor
  6. Iv just finished mine. These later became known as nicholson turfmaster. Iv not come across a a place to buy parts... I was lucky to.have most bits with mine. I done a full strip down and rebuild with some changes i.e larger rear wheels.

  9. Nearly there... carb leaking fuel back out the inlet. Was set up for gravity fed tank but iv fitted pump. Over fueling I pressume now. Swap carbs over now Old man having a test run....
