Early Landmaster Rotary 14

[vhgmcbuddy]

Hello
I have just joined the vhgmc,thank you.
I have just acquired a Landmaster Rotary 14 self propelled mower.The engine is dated 22/05/1969.The grassbox has Landmaster Rotary 14 and the sides have Self-Propelled decals.I assume it once had Landmaster across the top deck below the handlebar.
Another difference is the exhaust does not vent through the deck but has a brass flip cover which reveals the deck hole.
Any information on this early model would be most appreciated.
I was also wondering about the paint codes would the blue be Ford Tractor Blue?
I cannot seem to reference the colour codes mentioned on a earlier forum post(19-0590 & 02-0240) are these a standard paint code.
I also have a lovely Norlett Rapier to restore I was wondering what is the correct gold/yellow paint code.
Thank you again for letting me join.
Graham

Your Landmaster later became the Saturn which was available in both push and self-propelled forms. I’m fairly certain that a couple of years ago someone documented the restoration of one on this forum – but it could have been elsewhere!
I’ve got some Saturn literature and I will scan it and post it later.

Had it on file!
