Default Great Dane Stander

I just bought this Super Surfer for $795 Now I have to drive to NY to pick it up. I guess you can add $80 gas to that.

22hp Kohler / 52" deck / no hour meter/ needs a weld

Lawn care business tips
Was there any estimate as to how many hours were on it? Keep us posted on what you think of it once you get it.

I cant tell about the hours. Ill put a meter on it for maintenance. There is a local guy that rebuilds Kohlers for cheap. So I'm not to worried about the engine.

I paid to get it shipped by Moreira Enterprises. It wasnt bad $120. Total was $915 plus a $4 can of rustoleam.

The mower was in better shape then I thought. It doesnt need a weld its just a spotty job on the welds. Front tires dont look that great. I gave it a quick paint job. I like how it doesnt rip turf when turning hard.

It looks bright and shiny!

What does he do to rebuild them? I'd love to hear about what things he does to it.

I believe he just fixes what needs to be replaced. I didnt ask to many questions. I think if he redid everything it would be a overhaul and a lot more money.


Heres some cheasy videos of the mower. It did slip on the hill once but overall handled it well.

Now you tell me? Mofo, I already done painted it $hitty. I did miss the rims somehow. Ill try the plasti Dip when I paint it and the end of the year. I'm going to spray the business name and paws on it.
