I miss the days around twelve years ago when I would routinely find old mowers (trade ins?)dumped near mower shop's skips out in the open carpark in various states of function.
It was a double edge sword as I only had a sedan and had to load them into the rear seat which was heavy on my back. I also became overrun with mowers in the back yard with few places to put them undercover and so the elements got to them and they deteriorated fast.
I eventually had to dispose of them as they took too much room and harboured creepy crawlies.
If I still had them today, I could probably make a tidy profit on ebay as a lot of them were the now harder to get Victa hi arch alloy chassis, many in good shape.
Such is life.



Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
