**Reason I didn't bother is because as a Victa enthusiast, I am passionate about the thumblatch high arch models and didn't appreciate how great these side pulls are and how hard they are to find, and I seemed to be coming across a few of these ungainly looking steel body models, giving the false impression they are a dime a dozen which they are apparently not. I have warmed to this model as they are made of thicker steel than PT bases and catchers are easy to get for them as so many fit it. Plus it's the last of the full cranks and the only one to be fitted to a steel body. Very historic model when you think it through.
