When I got my new Scott Bonnar model 48,it can came with a bonus mower.Which is this Victa Cortina 2.Now originally I was going to wreck this poor old girl,but now after having a good look at it.I don't think I will,the engine seems very good and besides rust on the handles and two chunks from the front of the base (which I believe is fixable).I think it will clean up very well.My only big problem is I don't have a catcher for it.Now I know Rodeobob had one,which I left with him (kind of wished I hadn't now).I mean it wasn't good but it was most likely repairable.So now I will need to find one for it.I think the starter is cactus as well it really doesn't do what it's suppose to do,it just makes a lot of noise trying to do it.Here have a look. I mean it looks sad but I think it's still worth saving.
