Wow mate, you finally found yourself a pro Victa after begging me for months! Great score, you cleaned it up well now its ready to slash some blocks. Well done!
wow i thought this mower from me did not require this much work , good to know about that take off on grass really interesting how it takes off on grass its different ... excellent job on this well done Andrew .
Thanks Mike, a little bit of work, however this one was truly a win-win for both of us!! I look forward to catching up and hopefully one day doing some projects together!! Cheers Drew
Nice buy Drew....You really made this mower shine....Just needs a new set of wheels....I hear the 550s dont come up for sale very often....Did you check the piston out but the mower sounds sweet...Cheers Gary.
Thanks Gary! It's definitely a good mower. No I didn’t check the Piston, you are correct I should’ve done that when I had the muffler off, by the way it runs I think it would’ve been in excellent condition! I think the PRO wheels can be difficult to come across, do you possibly know where I can get some? Cheers Drew
Often they are just put out for hard rubbish! This one was on Marketplace, however the guy I bought it off told me he picked it up off of a hard rubbish pile!! Cheers Drew
@@scaredyethi mate been waiting for you to pop up, how are you? Funny thing is the guy I bought this off told me he picked it up off of a hard rubbish pile from his neighbour!! I called it a win-win and thought that you would love this story!!!! Cheers Drew

@@DrewFixIt the wheels andrew , i would fiberglass them i have repaired car bumpers fiberglassing them same process
Just a thought…..you could possibly repair that large diameter snorkel with a PVC socket and silicone the 2 pieces in?
Where do you find all these lawn mowers I’m a bit of a lawn mower collector as well. And I can see you really like the victa 2 strokes
