Victa 18 S4 candidate - S/N 119754

Hi all,

Here's the second one I pulled out. I'd appreciate any further info on this mower- version, modifications, salvageability, worth, etc.

S/No:
upper half 119754
lower half 2

Second one I pulled out. In the spirit of 'do no harm', I cleaned as minimally as possible, and then only with warm water and fingers.

Immediately felt more solid than the first one- handle firm and wheels smooth and not wobbly. Has all the little hub caps, too.

Base flywheel rusted but both blades there.

The motor is free- I pulled it through one compression I think. Typical resistance.

Oh, and I heard rumours of asbestos in the exhaust system... nothing apparent here I think. Fibres on top of flywheel are bits of grass I think.

Here are the photos below.
