OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping Rare Finds & Donations 1962-63 Viceroy Model 505

After a recent purchase I had the other week.Of which was a 1962-63 Viceroy and Ambassador bases.



Since that I have been trying to work out where the dickens I could get a viceroy engine from.Even contacting the old owner Kye all to no avail.Then after talking to Kye it dawned on me.I already had an engine that I took of an old wreck which wasn't worth saving.
So then I end up with this.






I know I know there is a terrible huge amount of work to be done to make it an awesome mower,but considering how rare these guys are it will be well worth it.Still have to sauce a few parts like air cleaner and the right muffler.Also maybe a starter as I just don't know how good the one that is on it is.It seems rough,and I do have a lot of metal work to be done.It also seems I will need some strange clips and springs to make the handles work again,but other than that I have one and it will be awesome.
