neil 2,410 #7 Posted April 22, 2012 I remember when i got my first round hood paul, i couldnt sleep for about a week ( how sad is that) i bet every time you walk past the workshop you just have to give it a nice smile., i know i still do with mine even after two years she is a lovely looking ranger paul , & like craig says that seat cover is just awesome . How did you manage to get chris to part with his Ranger? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pmackellow 12 #8 Posted April 22, 2012 I'm not sure how I got Chris to part with it Neil, must have caught him at a weak moment !! He knows its gone to a loving home :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris sutton 610 #9 Posted April 22, 2012 just thought paul could get some use out of it and I know he will look after it. anyway I can always build another one. :tools-wrench: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 2,756 #10 Posted April 23, 2012 yeah, I do like round hoods - if only they were a bit easier to come by... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken B 3,189 #13 Posted April 26, 2012 Very nice score! The Lawn Ranger looks to be in especially nice condition! I had a mint restored one that I wish I had kept. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pmackellow 12 #14 Posted April 27, 2012 Thanks Ken and Matt, as you can see I am very pleased with the Lawn Ranger, its the same age as me (1966), just in better condition !! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stigian 1,234 #15 Posted April 29, 2012 Vertical shaft Wh's are not quite my thing, but I love your ranger, very groovy seat cover I see your not that far away from me Paul, If your ever over Hawkhurst way feel free to drop in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pmackellow 12 #16 Posted April 29, 2012 I got the B115 because it was a later developement of the earlier machines, I thought a range from 1966 to 1983 would be good... Thanks for the offer stigian, will hopefully see you at Ardingly in July anyway, quite often see nigel who is not far from you... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stigian 1,234 #17 Posted April 29, 2012 You could say that Nigel is not far from me, it's never taken him longer than 5 min's to get from where ever he is to here. He is dropping in the have a look at my projects steering problem tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
