Hi Mowerfreak- nice resto job.
I have the white version of these Victa mowers.
I found it at the tip (again), and it was in a VERY sorry state when I found it. Wrong handlebars, which were welded in position. The white cowl was pretty cracked too. Of course not running, and as it turned out, appeared to have been straight fuelled.
I fixed it up, and it’s running again. Needed new rings, and the barrel cleaned up with ultra fine wet and dry. Runs fine now.
I will get it out from under the house and post some pics.
