Thats a lot of money The bloke who had the one that The Showman did up for him put it on there at £5000 !!!

Looking good !!

The literature I have is not that helpful regarding colour so yes I think it will be doing its bit for the environment and going green !!

Looks like a great project and compliments your other Case, good find !!

Been busy with the spanners this evening on the "new" mower, it started off on the bench as in the first photo and currently looks like as in the second photo !! Good degrease and perhaps sort out some better wheels for it next...

Scary how the years roll by Gareth, I can't believe its three years since we took the Tarpen display there...

Thats a beast Nigel !! Silly question, why's it called Jimshot ??

Oh yes, putting the paint on is the easy bit !!

Thats horrendous Neil, hope you and your family are ok

Hello Gareth, when I bought it the previous owner said it was seized up... I have managed to free it off and its got bags of compression but as yet no spark... With Tractor World imminent it has been prettied up for the show and then further investigation will take place after the show Thanks John, as you know we are not trophy hunters but I want to put a good display on , hence the hours thrown at Number 3 to get it at least presentable for Joe Public to look at...

Well done, it looks like you were having a good time !!

More progress over the weekend... Multigardner 3 has been painted and fitted to the graveyard mower chassis, and a new addition is this mower... although badged as a Norlett it is identical to the Farmfitters Rapier mower that was also offered as an attachment for the Multigardner... I have another use for the B&S engine thats on it so nothing is going to waste...

Great set of photos Nigel, I expect all those tractors etc are long gone now aren't they ??

At least you have sign posts, I still reckon that in certain parts of Kent nobody has been informed that the war is over !!

Hello Jimbo, you made it here then mate !!

Would be an interesting book or series of articles wouldn't it ?? Hmmm...

What a great lineup of machines, well done !!

It was a charity event in Burwash (East Sussex) a couple of years ago

Thanks for the advice John, so far I have been lucky as all machines have caps with them The Briggs caps were ok to replace, I bought a box full from you know where but the Clinton one could be more of a problem... the one on it is ok though

Great lineup of machines, a nice collection

Poxy weather when is it going to end ???

Done !!

Machine testing facility... oh you mean the race track !!

Good man, I am sure it will look even better than the one you lost...

They are certainly distinctive aren't they, must cost an arm and a leg to run !!
