Thanks so much, fellas. I really appreciate the sharing of your knowledge. It's always nice to be able to tell people all about these machine when they ask.
I'm off to pick up ANOTHER Victa this afternoon........looks like an early 70's Mayfair, with two plastic catchers (one's a spare) and a spare zip starter also. I also have a lead on another early 60's looking one........looks very complete and promising!!!
