Good on you mate to be honest paul i sold it to a mate and he doesnt use it anymore they are quite rare these days so i wanted it back for the collection its fitted with a later briggs 7 or 8 hp motor they are tank like and will cut anything in its path all i have to do is fix the broken drive on the rear axle that might be a challenge but im sure ill cope with it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snowy the grey AKA Chris 6 #4 Posted June 4, 2014 Is this the Wolseley Clearway rotary mower. I picked up one of these a couple of years ago, local authority yellow. Cuts through anything, great workhorse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rotoscytheben 94 #5 Posted June 4, 2014 Is this the Wolseley Clearway rotary mower. I picked up one of these a couple of years ago, local authority yellow. Cuts through anything, great workhorse. no wolseley made three different mowers the clearway the biggest a slightly smaller one still a beast though and the smallest which is the grasscutter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #6 Posted June 4, 2014 I had an ex contract Wolseley a good few years back, until it put it's rod through the side. A beast as stated. It could cut down gooseberry bushes. Not on purpose I hasten to add. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
