This photo of the factory shot from the 70's is interesting as it depicts what appears to be a timeline of Victa mowers each with its own significance...What I find unusual is the absence of the Model 4 Automatic (Predicta) which was a significant (but flawed) design of the times..... wink

Wow, that must have been a prototype Mustang with a prototype G4 carby from the looks of the throttle and airfilter assembly on the mower in the far left. Unless this was taken in 75 or later. The only thing that gives it away is the fact that the throttle body on the handelbars has controls built into the airfilter assembly and it had the, to me, the correct shape for the G4 Throttle controller from 75-77.

I know it's a black and white picture but the shades look way to dark on the mustang compared to the others and leaves me thinking they were still at the point of using the darker green VC colour paint.
