Info on the Colwood 'RA'

[vhgmcbuddy]

Hi,
Im a proud owner of a Colwood RA that has seen quite a bit of work. it all seems in good order except for the engine. So im chasing any manuals or repair info i can get my hands on. the tiller blades also need replacing as they are all but worn out so im also hunting for some of those.

Im restoring not only for my own pleasure but for a little use as well.
Any info is greatly appreciated.

It’s got the wrong engine, should be a Villiers ! There is a Colwood register run by Steve Deness and he has loads of information on them.

My Colwood Model B has a Villiers Mk 10, I’m not sure what the RA was fitted with but it could have been a Mk 10 or Mk 12…
