yep its blackhole that was going to get used after the wet sand and g3 to bring up the shine but it was pish on fresh paint ended up using 3m finishing compound and ag hd wx

currently lost all motivation to do anything too it so lying in the corner waiting for me to finish the body paintwork off and paint and fit bumpers etc

Here's a little project 🙂
I got given a ruined Westfield laser ride on mower non runner due to the loom being melted tyres flat belts have snapped and gone somewhere etc etc anyway I happened to have a rolling shell of a Westfield t1200 which I got drivable with a standard lawnmower engine but that's another thing.

cut a long story short I made a loom out of random cable out the shed changed the oil charged the battery and first turn it was running 🙂 so I brought a belt for £30 and job done I cut all the grass lol it needs some welding prep and paint to look good but oh well it works fine lol

first night I got it it was repaired 2 days later I cut the grass 🙂

Great video. Iv allways fancied lawn mower racing. Looks quick n if u fall off you will get mowed over litrally.

5M1THY

quality 🙂 the same engine blew up on the 1200 lol the laser has a kohler engine in it 14.5hp I think but the throttle adjuster will rev it till it valve bounces and if you rip the clutch up it burns it off wheel spinning lol
it is actually a good mower though I'll try and get a vid next time I use it 🙂

Dave_Gilbert

I used to use a ride on with the blades removed as a small tractor and the clutch and brake was the same pedal but the brakes were shit
I used it to move stuff round a large garden

There was a small hill upto the compost heap so I would go up it and put the clutch in n start rolling back n jump off the clutch and pull weelies up the hill it was great fun when I was 16 hahahahaha
