  Most of them have petrol engines, though some are diesels. Again most are started by handle, while a few are electric start. As I've already said, centrifugal clutch. and the throttle is a lever mount on one of the brake/steering levers. You can just see the lever in some of the photo's. Can make driving interesting. :D

thank you stormin !  great pictures  of fascinating  stuff,  we all share an  interest  in smaller equipment  ,  and just showing what's  around your area  only increases that view. interesting that we have an ocean and thousands of miles  between us , yet we are all drawn to older mechanical equipment. great having you on board with  your input, pete

  Asking £25,000. for the lot. But NOT the digger. Bear in mind, some like number 38 and the skimmers are rare. Buyer collects or pays carriage/freight.  :D

  He may be persuaded to sell some individually.

That sounds like a lot, but for the entire collection I believe that sounds like a fair price for so many tools!
