Really like the scag restore or more like this because I’m in the market for a used mower
You've got an absolute steal for $400 if all is well and sorted Given it's worth multiple times price you paid But unfortunately Sellers are Not always forthcoming so Best of luck mate.👍🙏
Bought a used 62" 287L Toro back in 2010 for $1750. Kept it and rebuilt it and fixed it. Then used it for 11 years and made good money with it part time. Still have it to mow my own yard.
Just found your channel this morning. I like your style I’m 60 years old and still love to do the same things you’re doing.
Thank you for watching!
Got my 52 inch scag for $350. It ran but was in rough shape. Deck had rust holes in the front, it had sat for 5 years straight. I brought it back to life and it’s still my best mower. I have brand new mowers and still the 52 is my go to everyday mower.
Awesome 👍 there’s something about bringing an old thing back to life you enjoy it more that way!
How did you locate that one?
@@Rein_Ciarfellaprobably side of the street or seen in around where he lives ive done it a few times.
Love this video
That’s awesome! I’m super jealous too; I’ve got 3 scag mowers and I wish I owned one like this! Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
Love the restoration content!
1k subscribers already!
Your doing something right! Keep it up bro when I can't be outside working on projects I like watching someone do it.
Thank you! Yes it happened quick but I’m not complaining 🙂
Boat brought me here. Stayed for the mower! Subscribed
Thank you!
I literally just did this with a 14 tiger cat 52. I paid 2500 for it cleaned it up spent 200 in new parts like grips sticker deck guard etc and sold it for 4900. A very good mower for sure
Awesome nice profit 👍
Awesome find!
Thank you!
Im a commercial landscaper and a Scag is the best mower ive used by far. It doesn't skip in high grass and its fast. You can cut at top speed if u want
Agreed! I liked using it while it lasted 😬
Thats not really bad, I've seen commercial ones that the paint worn off and they have nothing left salvageable on them
Came across your channel today. You're great. I watched all your videos and subscribed😊. I myself inherited a 1994 stratos boat that I will be redoing this summer. I love restoration videos. They seem to do good on youtube. My son wants me to start a channel, but I'm not very talkative when I work. Lol. Keep them coming🫡
Thank you for watching and subscribing! Hey if you end up filming a restoration video of your boat let me know I’d love to watch it too!
Just keep restoring whatever you are into. Maybe the more random, the better. The views and new subscribers will be the proof in the pudding.
Thank you. Will do!
Ahh finally found a use for that 11/32 socket 😂
😆
Use a thermo heat gun "infrared" and check exhaust pipe temp. Or a crayon, candle, all will keep you from getting the crap shocked out of you.

Thank you!
Perfect example of "you dont need new". Great content will follow for sure. If you have skill and want to learn .. deals are out there apperently
Thank you!
Nice videos!
Thank you!
did you set the valve lash?
Not being there, kind a looks likes you have no spark on the left cylinder. Trace that ignition back and you'll find the problem I'm sure... I'd say you still got a great deal in my opinion. Thumbs Up!
Thank you for trying to help, I found the issue already will be posting a video about it soon!
It's funny that you call that an old mower. I think of an old mower as something at least pre 1980.
Also $400 is basically giving that thing away. Can't believe you found it that cheap.
Yeah not that old actually 🙂
And yes for sure I still can’t believe I got it for this much especially after I cleaned it up!
I’m amazed at how little you paid for this ZT. I’m teaching myself small engine work and have a lot of free or very low money equipment to work on and flip. I’ve recently decided to learn all I can about zero turns. Around here I rarely see any for sale for low money and none free. Could you please tell us the exact circumstances surrounding this machine? How did you find it and why was the price so low?
I’m planning to make a video soon on how I find these deals, honestly most of the time it’s as is deals, you buy it and without really knowing how much work it will need, sometimes you win sometimes you loose 🤷♂️
Score!
Thanks!
I have a brand new Honda 630 engine for it. 😊😊😊😊
How can I get a hold of it? 😂
l just found your channel, love the mower content. I have a Skag mower dealer in my town, but I don't know if they are any good. I'll keep watching. A little less music please.
Thank you for watching!
Scags are one of the best cutting commercial mowers, especially with the Velocity Plus deck, and are very reliable. All mower brands have their own issues but a fair bit of it stems from guys that don't maintenance something until it breaks.
RH shock mount at 10:20 bent? to the right of the battery.
Good eye! Yeah it’s bent for sure
Hey man I'm looking for a ENGINE for my scag 52" lat me know
Hello
Why not power wash before you start? lot better to work on clean parts!!!
12k for a new one in 2023 that's for gas I think the diesel was pushing 20k

Thank you!
I buy a broken zero turn fix it use it all year sell it next year and buy another repeat. Done it for about 8 years now.
Sounds fun 🙂👍
How are you locating them and at what price range?
@@Rein_Ciarfella I got a buddy who buys trade In mowers from local dealers he don’t wanna do major repairs on them so I’ll usually buy one or so from him I’ll usually pay 3-5 hundred for a nice zero turn
@@alecfranklin522 So, aren't you paying $300-$500 to mow your yard every year?
@@busyboy7635 300-500 to buy the mower pulse repairing them then I sell them in the spring of them next year for 1500-2500. I make money on mowing my yard😎.
Not everything is a "barn find" just because you've seen popular videos with that in the title.
This mower was literally siting in a barn for many years, the picture in the thumbnail is of this actual mower just the way it was sitting when I came to pick it up.
Either lying or its stolen. That mower, in that condition, would sell for $3k easy.
Not lying and not stolen, bought it from the original owner, just blessed with a good deal 💪
@@Ace.Fisher Must be. I paid $750 for a 2006 Craftsman 42 inch (not a zero turn obviously). Granted it was almost mint, just needed a carb cleaning.
Id love to have a zero turn, but Iv seen scags almost exactly like this one used and people ask at LEAST $3k, Iv seen alot more. They go for what, like $9k new? Mower prices are out of control, much like everything else
@@Ace.Fisher screaming deal. im jealous lol
That mower is not that old. Don’t step on the deck.
You’re right it’s not very old but Atleast 12 years old I would assume!
And I’ve been told scag deck is strong enough to step on but ok I’ll try not to! 👍
Good topic but the music is so distracting - spoils it.
Bro shut up
Bro shut up
You spend too much time camera work panning over the engine in the mower and stuff just show it once and that's it
Amateur 😂😂😂
No need to announce your status 😉
@@Ace.Fisher
Well, I think he’s pretty rude, but I’m guessing he’s referring to the production values of your video. Low production values are to be expected from creators new to TH-cam. As you gain more experience and feedback from viewers the quality of your videos will certainly improve if you are open to constructive criticism. 👍
