OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Collectors Corner Cylinder Is this Victa Imperial 16 Complete and original ?

Hey guys,

Came across this and was wondering if anyone can tell me if it looks original and complete or is it a mish-mash of other parts ?

It looks complete and original to me and I have had two of them. What makes you think that it might not be?

Thanks for the reply Paul



Picked up what I thought was a VICTA utility the other day, turns out it's a mix of other mowers (base is from Utility, engine and muffler from something else).

Though I'd ask here 1st just in-case, as I'm pretty much a newbie when it comes to these sorts of things. :p

hi widget
I agree with paul looks just as it left the factory
how wide is the cut it looks to be small 14 inch
ones I saw and worked on were larger 17 inch machines
it looks like good machine to restore
good find

Hello all

A part from the throttle control, this presents as a totally
original second model 16" Imperial. These were made between 1970
and 1972. A full specification may be found here:-

Hope this helps.

Thanks guys :), picked it up on ebay for $82.50 (+travel and fuel costs)... hopefully I didn;t pay too much for it. I've seen a few posts of other members doing these up and thought they looked great
