Early Westwood Mower Wanted

Wanted Westwood Gazelle Lawn Mower -

 

Hi all, I am looking for an early Westwood tractor that has a white grille, flat footrests, and all should have a gearstick in the middle between steering wheel and seat. Any location within the UK I can collect with courier or collection in person (Cash on collection) or bank transfer. If you have an early Westwood with these features like the two pictured below and want to sell, please message me through MoM or by phone through message. If you know of anyone who may have one that would be interested to sell, please also message me. Any condition I am interested to purchase. Much appreciated. Thanks.

I can't believe all of the tractors like that we scrapped over here under the Bradford /Monte Carlo name. Used to find them in piles and we would make one good tractor out of about 10 of them.

No! Aha oh well. They are becoming so few and far between and I have been looking everywhere for one. So any condition, any location I will take it. Lol.

Not that it affects the availability but the early "Westwoods"  were imported and rebadged Dynamarks.

Yeah I know, but I don't think I will be able to find an early early Westwood as there's virtually none of these seen not even on google images! That's why I'm trying to get the earliest possible or just about possible with the gearstick in the middle etc. Thanks for the information. Much appreciated.

Yeah I know but they haven't got the early features. I just can't find an earlier Westwood than mine, it's like they all went to the incinerator, I'm sure unfortunatley some of them did. Lol. Thanks for the reply.

Hey mate, good luck with finding one. There's a lot of "paleface" early Westwoods still around, in fact at any given time there's usually a couple/few on ebay, but as for the very early ones with angled footrests from 1978 and maybe before, these are very scarce, as we have discussed. I am sure they're out there though. I have seen a few on that auction site that cannot be named, in fact that's where I found mine. If I hear or or see any for sale, will be sure to let you know.

I see that there's a Westwood Clipper on that auction site at present. I'd totally forgotten that they made such a thing!.

There's also a lawnbug on there in decent restorable condition

@WestwoodGazelle Hi, ok that would be great if you would be able to have a look out for any Westwood tractors that's the same as yours pictured above. I will have a look out also for a Westwood Lawn Bug in Wales as I'm virtually on eBay everyday. Cheers
