    Yes.... that is super cool! Also a massive yank fan Nice one. What is the shipping cost? I would also quite like that low loader it's loaded on to

    I'm gunna ask a silly question I'm sure... How come you have gone to the trouble off shipping it across from America? Is it a special one? Does look.cool!

    Yer I let him know (communication is through his son) I will let him know I got the paper work and again let him know it's running, with lovely new tyres ready for show on Saturday.

    Bolens HT23

    May look into road registering mine.... being the 853 it narrows Down to being made 70/71 and engine number is 71. How would I go about getting a v5? Can't I get a bolens headed letter? Or just apply for a Q plate?

    Best post I have had in a while.... some cool paper work and old pictures off when the previous owner must have got the bolens! Awesome

    Nice cold startup...

    Doesn't list the 10.50... only 8.50. But I'm sure it will be ok? Right ?

    If we are talking pennies... I can make it 3000 . Just got to hope they fit... may have to remove the tray under the seat to stop rubbing!

    Little bit smokey at times, but I can investigate that. Yes he loves it and it doesn't bother him in the slightest. Looking forward to sorting the wheels Wednesday and then showing Saturday. Decided on the fordingbridge summer festival. A bit more relaxed with the new baby and only 5 mins away.

    I have uploaded another little video off the engine running to youtube. .

    Owner contacted me today... he has found some paper work for the bolens and is sending it down. I think it's just a manual as he said he had a friend in America who sent him one across but who know what goodies may turn up

    Managed to sort the gear crunching.... the foot pedal wasn't engaging quite enough. The transmission whine... will that kind off is what it is.. anyone to stop it? Silly question I expect.... where is the clutch? And easiest way to check

    Cheers for uploading the videos. Matt

    Can't get the youtube videos on here.. But if you go on YouTube and search bangerboi2b (account I made a good few years ago ) then I have uploaded a couple onto there. The bolens looks quite smokey in one video but that appears to have cleared itself up Let me know what you think
  17. madmatt01
    Brilliant! Cheers for the identification. Yes all set up and working, appears to be working well. Engine aswell seems to be going well after a few hick ups earlier. I will be taking the carb off for a good clean out soon. Only thing left to do asap is the wheels but they should be sorted by next weekend. All in all very happy with how she is going... will try and sort the video

    Bit off tinkering to do... but not bad for an old girl that hasnt moved in 15yr 20160709_163920_001.mp4
  19. madmatt01
    She lives!! After much tinkering, she fired up and stayed running and also DROVE Got a film off it... will work out how to do that later
  20. madmatt01
    Will look into the bolens forumn... And will get a photo off it running... as soon as it is! Just working at getting the front off to get to the points

    Engine number - 190401 013(poss 8)9 01 7001261 From what I can work out it was made on 26/01/1970 which would put it in line to be an 853?
  22. madmatt01
    Going out to play shortly. Hopefully if I can find the engine numbers that will maybe unvail all... now where do I look?
  23. madmatt01
    Does it have the hi-lo leaver? As 853 had the hi-lo and 650/750 didn't. May help narrow it down
  24. madmatt01
    Good read that. Thankyou
  25. madmatt01
