Hi Speedy, I will probably do the same, but a side chute would still be nice. Yes please, if you could ask him about the details. Be great if he has a template! How are the decals progressing?
A Victa parts seller who is an expert on Victa parts tells me the original number for the windrower on my Victa Special 2 (model 562 1968-69) is 8-1352. Mayfair rear chute I require is CH82470G. Back in the day, Victa called these "Ejector chutes". Photo off ebay.
