    Antique Lawnmore ID
    I need someone to see if they can ID this lawnmower for me, or tell me a website that ID's antique lawn mowers. I know NOTHING about it, and would like to find out more. Thank you for all of your help.

    Hi,
    It looks restored and non-original. I have restored a few myself. I would say it looks like one of the original Shappers, though the clutching mechanism is not familiar.
    Peace,
