I've got a SPFC Mustang I found discarded years ago and it's a beautiful runner. Starts so easily and runs sweet.

PS I sanded some filler on the left side and touched it up. I then discovered two cracks on the front skirt mad. I'll hammer it flush and apply JB weld underneath.

I took the opportunity to swap a spare starter in as the other one had a short rope that didn't retract fully.

I swapped the Mustang label from the old cracked top before cleaning the top grill and fitting to the mower.

These fixes took most of my night but very glad to have finally gotten around to completing it.

I used screws from a discarded microwave to replace the rusty originals.

Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
