    I know what you mean, it is a great feeling to be able to help mates out. I've spent the last few days trying to repair a (disabled) friends stair-lift. Never touch one before so it was a hell of a learning curve ... got it fix though. A good result all round.

    That paintjob had me worried. It was a clear case of "let's polish this turd to get a few extra bucks out of it". Overspray in the engine bay is usually a good indicator. I hope it turns out to be a solid machine, but with the information we now have, I have my doubts. Would be interested in seeing a follow up though.

    • @Porty1119
      @Porty1119 3 года назад +8

      The ol' DuPont rebuild! I've got a machine that had a paintjob like that a while back, I think the buyer repainted it to match their other machines and didn't do a great job. I bought it with 11 hours on the meter, based on wear that was either a true reading or very close.

    • @timderks5960
      @timderks5960 3 года назад +11

      @@Porty1119 Yeah that's a possibility as well of course. This could very well be a case of "Well I can't come to a job with a rusty ratty looking machine, let's just give it a quick paint job". Most customers aren't gonna see it up close anyway, so it doesn't have to be that good. If there's one thing I've learned from watching many, many people on RUclips buy machinery though, it's that this kind of paint job should make you triple check everything.

      @Senkino5o 3 года назад +3

      'Works' can be a very relative thing with equipment, we just replaced the track motors on my mate's 4t T650 Bobcat loader and 2 days later one of his boys tore a track clear in half while clearing a property.
      Not too bad, on the side of the 'main street' of a 'town of maybe 80, gravel roads, no thieves. Still $5,000 apiece for new tracks.
      The costs of moving inoperable equipment can exceed the price of purchase. A crane call and replacement rental while waiting for parts could blow weeks or even months out of your budget.
      What am I saying? Its a pretty poor assumption that you can instantly convert a machine that barely works into profit. Expect to nurse it back to shape first.

    I like all the content that you post and find it mostly easy to watch... not a lot of bad camera work which takes me out quick. Hate having a body that dictates what I can do or not. You have come a long way since early days Matt. Your practicality favors my way of wrenching as well. Some beautiful country ohio and surrounding states. I live in Alaska where you can drive nine hours in any direction and still not be close to the border of it. I have a choice of muskeg or rock, ice or permafrost and here in central Ak, it is about twelve to fifteen feet anywhere you go... and the ground there doesn't match what your walking around on. From twenty feet down, a lot of ice from long ago. Yet we punch wells that are well, hard to believe but over a couple thousand feet on some.... rare. Here every acre has its own weather pattern and same as for getting water. Shallow wells are real easy but most going three to five hundred feet for good water. and a hundred feet any direction, your hitting China is more probable than finding water. Oddly we get less rain or snow here in central than most all of you in the continuous 48. I just never got to understand it as for early years were as a truck driver seen most of them but did grow up in washington and it was such a relief to go here and find a third of the rain or cold.

    The paint job was a worry, not what you could confuse with being a quality production. The controls appeared to function, but the switch gear and fuse panel were not exactly stock where they hung about. No doubt there were other gremlins, hopefully they can be de-fanged before they bite anyone. A good long winter nights project I think.
