G'day everyone,
Thanks again Maxwestern, I ended up chatting with the bloke and he reckons that his neighbour was getting rid of a Victa lawnmower a while ago and he didn't bother to grab it as he already had this Commando which he never used it was just sitting under the house for many years, good thing was it kept the elements off the mower as the deck looks nice and solid with no rust outs. Anyway I said that i'm always after these old school type mowers and if he comes across any other mowers that he'll probably be grabbing them and listing them on Gumtree from now on.
Hi Mowerfreak, great for those who have Foxtel they can watch the first episode of that "Aussie Inventions That Changed The World" show featuring the Victa lawnmower at 7:30pm for an hour, then straight after that you can tune into 7mate and watch "Commando" at 8:30pm. LOL! looks like it's a feature packed Victa themed sort of night on Monday! lol
Hi Tyler, thanks again for all the help mate. I actually have that sticker on one of the other 2 Commando's here. The FC one is only a small red and white warning decal on the rear flap. I think it's the same one that has been added at the start of this thread by the original poster Waynec. I could probably just print that one out and use it if I had to. I also think that one is available on ebay.
What is that mower shop going to do with that stuffed Commando, it's not bad if you can get it for free? lol Always good for parts.
Cheers!
