Came across these while driving to the shops. The man putting the rubbish out told me they hadn't been used in a long time and the owner had passed away last week. One is a late 80s PT and the other a Tornado with Briggs Qantum 50. Body looks clean but has play in the front axle and wanders to the right as you push it. As I went to take them away a guy pulled over in his car asking me if I was taking the mowers. I got to them in the nick of time. There's no doubt people have an eagle eye for dumped mowers and they are the first item to go in a hard rubbish pile. I need to get more petrol before I can test if they run.
Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
