Nice work, looks like somone may have had a go at restoring her? I need a new back axle for my one here also, tried one from a slightly later 18" cut self propelled victa but didnt fit due to the different height adjustment.

Yea they did start restoring her. That had it as part of there collection. Bad part is they gutted the auto drive parts so most likely wont ever be a auto drive again lol

Ok, so it's either a 1974-75 v169, mkIII Vc-auto drive, with MKI drive system, or a 1975-78 V198, MKIV with the MKII vc drive system ( there were two variants of this drive system, it was slightly modified in 1976) the eaiest way to tell for sure is the control, if you flip a metal bar to engage the drive, it's the 74 V169, if you squeeze a plastic lever on the right hand, it's a 1975-78 V198. If you post a pic of the full handle bars, i can post pics of the exact drive assy. To look out for.
Cheers
Ty

Until you can get a pic up of the handles, can you describe them, on particular the area you put your hands, and any controls aside from throttle?
