Hello Jack and other ODK members.I just wanted start by saying awesome work in the catalogue section Jack it is very done and very informative.
However I'd just like to point that your 1975 catalogue isn't a 1975 catalogue.
It is in-fact a second print of the 1973-74 catalogue.
As for 1975 mowers the G3 carby had been totally replaced by the G4 carby.
Here is an example like the model VC-Auto drive in that catalogue is a 1973-74 VC-Auto Drive Mark II with the G3 carby. The auto drive available in 1975 was in fact the 1974-76 VC-Auto drive Mark III with G4 carby.
Also remember that in 1975 was the big release of the 500 Twin of which is in the 1975 catalogue.
You may or may not recall at some point I asked you (maybe via PM I don't remember),if you had a catalogue called 'Big Grass Band'? that catalogue was the 1975 catalogue.
Now I'm not sure as to why but this particular catalogue seems to be one of the hardest to find,and I am still to this date haven't been able to get one.
The closet I have come to getting anything like it are these photos of it below.

Unfortunately this is all I have been able to get of it.Not sure why it's such a hard catalogue to find but it is.I just thought that you should know as this was the 1975 catalogue not the one have there at the moment.
The you-tube link you have on the 1975 range of VC-Mustangs is the correct one as all the VC-Mustangs (of 1975) had the G4 carby. You stated they had the G3 carbys for that add,they didn't. Those were the G4 models.Easy to tell by the snorkels and big black throttle control boxes in the add.
Thank You for taking the time to read.
I'll get off my soap box now.
Actually why is it called a soap box?
Thanks.


Here for a good time,not a long time.
