Cheers,
Pete.

My guess is that the decal has slipped round - too close to a radiator perhaps, or too many rubs from a leg whilst pedalling.
You're right to suspect a potential Victor frame though, as these had the lugged head tube, with the rest of the frame fillet-brazed.

That gumtree bike will clean up well.It always amazes me that when folk are trying to sell something,
they don't give it a bit of a clean first.
Go for it,the bits alone are worth the asking price.
Cheers,
Pete.

Just had another look at the pics.It would seem to have a conventional bottom bracket fitted.
So,Aerospace frame with butted head tube,ordinary bottom bracket,unless it,s been converted.
Should narrow things down a bit.
I await with interest for a report if you go to look at it Jem.
Cheers,
Pete.

Gumtree bike looks good. I like the colour - unusual for a Viscount? Should clean up well, as Pete says. A good buy for someone ...
