    Is that a Ransomes Ace? Mine has a small brass plate on the handles cross piece.

    Odd how IH went to the trouble of marking everything, which must have added some small cost. The hidden identity of the Elec Trak poses an interesting dilema I guess, do you restore it with the GE logo showing or hidden?

    For those wondering, the various Monro and other leaflets are part of the club archive, all material saved from Mechanised Gardening when they closed. This all needs sorting, cataloguing and indexing so we know exactly what is there.

    There is one lawnmower on display and of course the Land Rover could plough, cultivate and mow grass with the various attachments available.

    Engine certainly has a JAP/Villiers look but not sure which or what model.

    Another great skip find. Nice to have the trolley with it.

    I think a lot of us looking and only posting when we can add something of value or have a new topic to start. I am on here almost daily and it is good to see we are getting some interesting posts.

    Would it have been normal for a manufacturer to get tyres specially branded? It will make replacing them very difficult in the future, lets hope they last another 40 years.

    Photo of engine might help with id.

    The top of the dipstick should be a snug fit in the hole, no need for rags, unless it is the wrong dipstick! Parts list should show what they are like.

    It would appear that for some unknown reason some members prefer other forum and facebook sites rather than their own club website.

    That is the engine number, possibly a replacement engine or cowling. There is normally a plate with Geo Monro on it, I have seen them on the end of the fuel tank on one or two machines. Is that bits of rag stuffed in the dipsick holes on the gearbox?
