video worked for me. A side on photo of carb will help identify what float bowl looks like.

What carb is it? A photo or two would help.

Looking in Brian Bell’s book 70 Years of Garden Machinery it says “accessories for the M&G push hoes made by Murwood Agricultural at Grosvenor Gardens London and Aldridge in Staffordshire”

Mine has arrived too. They were posted yesterday.

[charlie]

If you could send some photos it would help.

It might be worth enquiring if the original authority that issued the registration mark retained the original records in their archive, not all did. FO appears to be Radnorshire which I think is now part of Powys.

[charlie]

If the number was spare ie vehicle declared scrap, then the number may have been reissued as an age related plate. It may be worth contacting the DVLA to find out.

[charlie]

That number (GFO 258) would appear to be an Indian, with 1200cc petrol engine dated 1946 currently on SORN according to DVLA records.

I believe there may be one in Scotland

I too initially thought it was a M11, but the air filter is in a different location, front of radiator. Some research I have done and documents found at Museum of English Rural Life, Reading, point towards a 10E.

Marc, no I have the later model A5

Marc, welcome to our forum. I am sure fellow SIMAR collectors will be interested in your pages. I have a collection myself including model 5, 30, 35 and 56 plus what I think is a 10 (see photo). The 56 I have is the 28th one made by Geo Monro, Nov 1948 and I still use it once or twice a year. I also have the soil shredder attachment for the 56.
