You're welcome fellas, and thanks, i'm chuffed for the new owner. He's an awesome guy and will do it justice, I've no doubt. I'm a big advocate of the free access to information, and hopefully these images and the collective contributions of all that have participated in this thread, will go a long way towards not only preserving the historical record of this model, but ensure that collectors can identify genuine examples of these increasingly valuable mowers. From the outset, I've intended to draw together a resource that is accessible for FREE - I'm of the school of thought that knowledge should never have a price tag.

Sadly, within the broader Victa community, with the exception of a good many ODK members (you know who you are ;)) , I've noticed a general unwillingness to contribute and share knowledge. Why they'd rather take to the grave what could encourage a whole new generation of collectors baffles me. The thirst for information is clearly out there, and with some 1,000 page views a day, this thread is a testament to that. So to all you silent viewers, come and get on board! Share what you know and make what is currently an excellent resource, an incredible resource.

Anyway, rant over lol. Just having one of those days mad wink
