I have never yet seen a 1975 made Victa that didn't have a G4.
I find that incredible!
I think maybe your [sic] looking at the calendar year and not the mower season. In most states the grass doesn't start to grow until spring and slows down in Autumn, hence a mower season which would cross over to a new year.
I do believe I was the first to point out the significance of lawnmowing seasons.
When I refer to 'Range Year', I mean the largest part of that season, i.e., the
second year. That is how Victa interpreted it, following auto industry conventions.
So therefore (Since where [sic] talking 1975) the season would be 1975 to 1976
Ah ... no ... We are discussing the 1974-75 season for 1975 models.
New season's Models are released at the end of the previous year. See above.
[Perhaps this is where your misunderstanding lies ...?]
See what I'm really trying to say if someone decided to collect 1975 made mowers with that catalogue they'd be looking for G3 models but that's not correct they had G4.
Totally disagree there.
My research says the G4 was introduced in September, 1975, for the 1975-76 season -
the 1976 Range.
