Wow I don't think heating that up is going to fix it.What I would be more likely to do is repair the the holes/cracks etc. Then sand it down and then repaint it.I guess it really depends on if you are going to use it or restore it to.

Here fixed up your photos.

Just to help what Ty (Mr Davis) has done here to help identify the types of mowers in the VC-160 range.I will add some pictures of the Auto Drives.Will look at the VC-160's and VC-125's at a later date.Here are the Auto Drives for now.

Starting with the VC-160 Auto Drive Mark I V109 1972-73



VC-Auto Drive Mark II V136 1973-74


VC-Auto Drive Mark III V169 (1975-75)
Sorry about the condition,my mark III is in some real need of repairs.
