Atco Standard Restoration Continues !

Enter a word or two to search the forum section and click the Search Forum button.

Hello Folks

Now the snow has melted from my workshop roof and the Crocuses are up, the time has come to continue with my Atco Standard restoration !

I have completely stripped and painted the machine and my question is originally were the nuts on the ends of the rods which hold the chassis together painted or left as bare metal ?

Secondly I have managed to locate a decompressor which was missing from my machine but I require the linkage if anyone has any bits laid about !

Best wishes to everyone hoping we have a super grass cutting summer !

John

A question i keep asking myself too. The standard that im in the process of restoring came fully painted, mainly because it was going to be used as a garden ornament. Im definitely on the bare side now, this weened i was making final adjustments and all the paint started to come off the bolts. They need to be painted or not, but painted leads to issues when repairs/adjustments are required.
