Yes and with a good size plot and freinds old and new gathered we can have a cracking weekend !!

Any pictures John ?? May be able to help as I have some Iseki information...

Further update next weekend when hopefully its all in position at the Three Counties Showground...

Taken advantage of the good weather today to get on with it...

Late sixties according to the brochure I have which is dated 1969...

Looks great so far, bet it will look A1 once finished !!

Thats what you said last year !!

Looking good Mark

As the Multigardner fleet is ready to go to Malvern I thought I might as well start making this look presentable... It swopped places with the Rapier mower chassis this evening ready for a coat of looking at over the weekend...

Thanks for your comments gents Rapier mower chassis now in tractor shed whilst the next machine goes into the workshop...

Anything of interest then Gareth ??

Bloke in the first photo looks the dodgiest !! Good photos Steve

Wheels and deflector plate back on plus decals affixed, just some little painting jobs to do and its ready to go to Malvern...

Just been talking to a chap who wants to sell his Crawley 75 tractor Its got a Petter PC1 Diesel in it, engine number 1028 complete with plough and ridger He is looking for £2500 for it Peter Vandendyk 01798 939113 or 07941 255264 It was in Tractor and Machinery in 2011

For parts try John Cruse at The Mower Centre, 01323 842477

Don't know where thoise posts went John, the trailer won't stay that clean for long !!

I was looking at the mower deck this evening and pondering how to pick out the warning notice lettering... I then had a lightbulb moment and checking that my angle grinder had a well worn disc in it I EVER so gently tickled the paint off the tops of the letters... don't think it came up too bad... Still waiting for one or two bits of paint to dry and then the other pair of wheels and the deflector plate can go back on, hopefully tomorrow...

All I have on the Hayter Osprey is as below, sorry no manuals, top bit of second photo upside down as it flaps over the front, so thats how its printed... The engine number should be on the air filter side of the cowling, the first two digits of the third set of numbers should give you the year...

That is so cool !!

Sounds like a good project Darren...

One of these then...

Top edge of deflector plate painted this evening and two wheels back on the mower deck, I can't refit the others until the deflector plate is ready to go back on as the same bolts that are used for the wheels also attach the deflector plate to the mower...

Oh right, shows how much I know about modern pushchairs then (nowt)

Thanks John, I doubt it will stay that clean for long !!

Here's the 2014 brochure...
