     I have never seen a gas powered Sunbeam either. Is the engine a 2 stroke? They imported Victa from Australia for a few years, made a fine lawn mower.

    Thanks Roy.  The engine is not a two stroke. I'm thinking that maybe someone converted it to a gas unit. If they did they did a great job. I saw it and couldn't let it be crushed. Motor still has decent compression too! Maybe I'll sell it to someone that has more time. It's a great one off or conversation piece! Thanks for the reply.

    Are you still looking for information on this snowblower?  If so, contact me.  I have one that I bought new.  Still use it and it's 37 years old.  Still have the owners manuel and gas engine was an option, not an aftermarket add on.

    Recently picked up a gas 3HP Sunbeam Snow Champ model UR602 (8430) manual start. Does anyone know how to tell the year built and/or can help getting an Owners Manual/Parts breakdown?
    Thanks.
