Any one know what this is?

My dad passed away a while ago, and behind his garage was this. Its choc full of bits and covered in green, so I will drag it out and powerwash it, but I dont recognise it at all, does anyone?




Thanks

It’s a Dutton RICO shuttle. The two windows on side rear is the give away.

Cool

So its not a lawnmower then...

thanks a lot. It's been there years and is stuffed with boxes of spares I suppose he was using for the project.
Looks like being scrapped.
Thanks again...

You might get some money for the ford escort mk 1 or 2 parts that was the donor. Unfortunately the car is rare but probably not worth much. Might be worth a punt on eBay to shift the whole lot!

That's an idea, will get it pressure washed down, spares out and see what's what.
Thanks again.
