the showman 4,074 #4 Posted December 14, 2015 Looks to be in good condition, what's your plan with it are you going to get it running and wipe it over with an oily rag or do a full restoration job ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris 642 #5 Posted December 14, 2015 Ohh nice find. Yes its a MK 1 Allen Scythe arround 1934/5. Whats the serial number?? I would just clean it up Be careful of the wheels on hard surfaces etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rolloman 123 #6 Posted December 17, 2015 Hi guys not sure what to do with the Allen as yet the engine is seized solid and the coil is dead will try to unseize but i think its going to need patience to do this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris 642 #7 Posted December 17, 2015 Take then engine off. Remove cowl & mag etc Put it into a bucket of diesel & forget for a month or 2 while you get on with another machine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
