Our neighbours from across the street in the 80s had a later SB side throw with white Briggs vertical pull circa early 70s. We used to sneer and joke at it's basic looks but came away impressed when I started it up and had a go. Cut so cleanly and started first pull every time. Loved how it shot a cloud of clippings with gusto.

It was the first Briggs, Scotty and side throw mower I experienced all at once.
Nice seeing one getting a makeover here. That looks so smart all done up for the ball. Particularly like that dark green.
Now you have to cut grass with it though!

Is that Scott's own 2 stroke engine?

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