My Zagray Farms score...

Recommended Posts

Ken B

You just never know what you are going to find at this show! It had to be 100 degrees out and who in their right mind is thinking snow? I was! I've flipped many snow blowers in my day, its amazing what people will pay for a good one in season after going thru a winter like the one we did last yr. but, when the temp is as hot as it was today they go cheap! The guy wanted 75 bucks for it and he was all kinds of firm. I thought about it for an hr. before I decided where am I going to find one as clean as this one for only 75 bucks? So, I finally decided to hand the man his money. When I got it back to our spot Stevebo was gettin in a few good chuckles when I busted out the Simple Green to clean it up some, I even busted out the wax! To top it all off it fires right up and purrs like a kitten. I'm going to keep this one, I need something to clear a path out to the wood pile and my walkways. The Wheel Horse's tear the yard up and I ain't as young as I used to be to be shoveling. As usual,Stevebo picked himself up a few nice score's as well.

That was a nice find for sure Ken! I came home and starting to snore on the couch until Brennan woke me and bugged me to unload the trailer. Well still half asleep I went to back up the trailer and spin it around and jackknifed and pushed in the rear corner of the bumper- :banghead:  So................ it will have to wait until tomorrow !

If you ever need a blower cheap, pick up one of those 2 cycle jobs at a yard sale. I didn't think much of them but got one for 25 bucks last year. works awesome to clear a path. When I blow this one up I'll get another! (It has a Tecky) :)

I've used quite a few high end two stroke jobs. Ariens, Toro and Honda. They are good for asphalt or a smooth walkway IMO. But to make the long pathway to the wood pile I want a real self propelled machine, not something I need to ram into the snow if its crusty because it rained after it snowed and is now frozen...

There was a pretty nice 854 there for 600 bucks obo. It had Hydro lift, a blade and a mower deck. Ran nice and looked pretty good. Don't know if it sold or not, I already have two nice 854's. Other than that, not much round hood stuff.

Poor Wheel Horse showing but like Ken said they always have cool stuff to buy. I think the prices were very fair today.
