Josh4722 12 #1 Posted August 1, 2019 So I've just bought this old paleface W11 to restore. I know it runs ride and cuts, but the paintwork needs fixing and the steering wheel, wiring and deck have had some dodgy repairs in its time. Its going to be fully stripped down and restored to factory condition. I will video the project and post it to youtube and also upload photos on here as i go as i may need advice etc. Ive had a W8 paleface in the past, a T1800, a W6, an S600, a T1200 and I currently have an early D1200 with the T1200 branding and Lombardini engine so Im not new to these machines. Ill post the first update this weekend. 4 WestwoodW8Gazelle, Cub Cadet, Stormin and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah Ive been on your site a few times, definitely going to order some, I picked it up today, it'd been sat in a barn 10 years with occasional use. i found out the previous owner had put a motorbike exhaust on it and hand painted the bonnet so today i removed the exhaust engine etc getting it ready for a full teardown tomorrow 1 Cub Cadet reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WestwoodGazelle 103 #6 Posted September 29, 2019 Good luck with the restoration! Your paleface looks pretty solid, very little rust With some new paint and decals will look great! If you need any parts let me know I have quite a lot. 1 WestwoodW8Gazelle reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
