OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping For Sale VC 160: The First Model

theres a thought , powertorque '18' with keystart ..... sometimes too much time ..

but oops , slipping off topic i feel .

is it getting closer to yours yet ? or another wierd end time

Not sure, 5-6 days I think....It will buzz me when its close:)

Only you vccomm could come up with a crazy idea of converting a VC-160 Mark I to an auto drive.Not sure how you could as the casting for the auto drive parts are completely different.You wouldn't even be able to get the belt around the engine and back around to where it should be.
Mal I wished the there were VC's in Queensland all gone now very hard to find here,they all appear to be in Melbourne now.Be nice if they were here I still need a few to complete my collection.

didnt mean a mk 1 mate , said had seem some with casting marks for it , not the mk 1 though

another one fell into my car today . walking around a junk shop as ya do . spotted this under a pile of um stuff covered in old grass cuttings grease and oil even has the dark greeeeeeeeen catcher a little cracked but not beyond it . got it home , tightened up the blade plate a new s/plug and away she went even new blades on it , sure its a MK 1 but had the impact starter changed , see the screw holes for the elusive starter ring .




and some s/h outer wheel bushs and caps , someone borrowed them same as the mk1 i already have but even less used by the looks of the sides of it

Coooool!

Spares! Lols

Hey your wheels look better than my ones.

Nice find VMan, Did we get it for a bargain?

$10 ok ? and it looked a real wreck too covered in pigeon poop and anything else you care to name !!
now i need 2 rings for them hahaha and a starter

Lols....Pigeon Poop preservative.

Its still looks a fairly tidy machine after being under all that muck, especially the cowl assy...

And at 10$ ya cant go wrong!

Well did you win it?

the question in everyones mind hahahaha ........ c'mooooon Mr 6 whats the G O here

Nope.... 13.50 till the last minute then got done.

I set my limit days ago at 70$ and they topped it, which I thought surprising, but then it was a pretty tidy example.

Its all good, ill just wait for My AD to come along...

Besides My Missus is already gonna slap me when she finds ive been hitting the Predicta Rear Flap pretty hard lmao....

Bugger if I had of known I would have got it.I would have been quite happy to ship that bad boy.I wasn't even going to restore it.I was going to do a rusteration on that one.Oh well the search continues.

If you wanted it that bad I would have bowed out and kept it for you, just needed to know your limit

I was really only getting it because it was up the road, and if it was to my taste maybe to collect in the future

Yeh but you are closer and you wanted it.Would have been easier for you to get it.Not to worry hopeful another one in the same or better condition will pop up.

I want one

Yes they are quite an awesome mower and they changed the look and style of things to come.

There's one on ebay now for a pretty good price.

Hasn't ended or is there another one?

Cant see it either... There is a Mustang and a Sports?

and a mk2 sellers name ? not sure if i can say it here . tried victa 2stroke and it came up 2nd page
