Hello Utility

The 'red' utilities appeared in about 1972.
The '72' numbers in the c/case number indicate that, too.

This is a 125cc with G3 carby.
It appears to be mostly original ...

I good start would be the Victa brochures:-

Specifically the 1972 Range:

Hope this helps.

p.s. I can't help with the colours.
Maybe a member can chip in on that.
