Cuz I read about it cuz!
I remember thinking the square air filter t bar controller was a whole new thing for Victa in 1988 after being used to the cylindrical design.
Same with the rear wheels with the large white section around the hubcap. Only years later found out they existed since the mid 70s for the higher end models.
I'm still getting my mind around that after 20 years of knowing that.
No way in 100,000 years am I buying that the pic dates from 1970. You have your information crossed somewhere.
Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
