Nice goIng getting the Powertorque back into service. It usually don't take much. Nice Mad Max look to it, not that you will be doing many lawns in post apocalyptic Australia. Maybe a toecutter would be better haha.

I don't think I'll ever fully recover seeing a newby get his hands on my dream mower since 1988 and made in my birth year of 1973. Even the plastic cover looks in the same shape I remember back then.

It was this mower that lead to my username. One of the boys in the family that had the first one I encountered noticed how much attention I gave to their machine and he asked "are you a mower freak?"
That is, madly into mowers. Certainly with the high arch models yes!


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